While certain circles called « authorized » profess a new « winter of AI », because these individuals, for whom computing, boils down to the use of a laptop, Google Chrome and, at a pinch, Microsoft. Office. Fortunately, machine learning came out of computer labs.
Out of the 1980s the neighborhood boutique
Our dear bakeries, butchers, bookstores, newsagents get stuck in the MSDOS era, crammed with an internet connection, but that is frustrating. COVID 19 has forced these shops from their torpor, with varying degrees of success.
Setting up an online store has become a procedure which is not trivial for the nerd, considerably simplifying for those who know HTML5 / PHP / SQL. I will be told that for the needs of smartphones, we add JQuery mobile in the source code and s ‘adapted to the standards of the time. We add to this knowledge to have the fact of having to meet the minimum requirements of computer security and it suddenly becomes less shopkeeper — friendly and in Europe there is of course the RGPD which weighs heavily.
The Internet store ready for use exists, this is of course in the use cases of OVH, AWS, Azure and Google Cloud; in charge of their customers, who are already struggling to create a TLS certificate to ensure the validity of their backups, that their merchant sites resist a DDOS or a banal XSS attack.
Resisted the temptation of the dark store
I am a lover of strolls, I have the chance to live, to work in a city which has more than two thousand years of history, a city which has known the Romans as well as the Vikings, the impulses of the Gothic , that the revolution that was the Reformation, the various passages of Napoleon, the terrible battles of the Marne during the First World War and the passage of the troops of General Leclerc on the way to deliver Paris.
COVID19 has spawned a new type of business, driven more by the reflex of immediate survival, than by real reflection on the thing: the dark store or how to imitate Amazon. As said above, even with online stores in kit form, these companies known locally and appreciated by their usual customers, are going this broken jaw to make international competition.
The side step via IA_AUT_ECO
The credo of this startup is to free the city from these constraints. One of the problems of the physical stalls is the hours and the accessibility, there is certainly the « click & collect » but it is more a prototype that works, than anything else, when it is necessary to maintain the historical source code. , I wouldn’t want to be there.
The goal of the solutions to come for the traders is that it is not only no worry, it is devoted to their basic trades while knowing how the system works (the black boxes not the quotte at IA_AUT_ECO), to be able to this devoted to their customers, internet, IoT, robotics, all of this is great if it is to serve people.
