Will Hayes, CEO of Lucidworks, gave a keynote speech to over 550 attendees from 200+ organizations and 25 countries. Hayes discussed how search has evolved to change the way people date, walk, and talk, and how the future of search will involve more natural language interactions between humans and computers. By 2020, most of the world's adults will have smartphones and there will be 44 zetabytes of stored data, equivalent to over 5 terabytes of data per person.
