A Gartner Strategic Technology Trend for the Year 2025

10-Year Forecast: A Gartner Strategic Technology Trend for the Year 2025

Below are the ten technological trends that Gartner describes as disruptors that may occur in 2025: This is due to pioneering factors such as automation in artificial intelligence, computing, and interaction of humans and machines. At the IT Symposium/Xpo in Australia, Gene Alvarez, a VP analyst at Gartner, presented these trends: 

1. AI as Decision-Makers

Currently, AI has gone a notch higher from helping people carry out their tasks to coming up with decisions for the users. Smart and autonomous AI will not only show options with options to the users but also give them the best options with their permission.

2. AI Governance Platforms

AI biases as well as opacity give rise to AI governance tools. These platforms will help to produce ethical and explainable AI results thus helping to foster peoples’ confidence in use of the AI.

3. Disinformation Defense Tools

With the appearance of generative intelligence, applications of protection against fake information are needed. It will also assist in identifying deepfakes as well as synthetic media within the sharing of fake details to protect organizations from wrongdoers.

4. Post-Quantum Cryptography

While quantum computing is a growing sector, current encryption techniques might be put at risk in future. In two to three years, the IT leaders have to shift to post quantum cryptography, to communications that cannot be broken using classical structures, or quantum structures.

5. Neural networks or Tags and Sensors of Ambient Wireless

The cost of wireless tags and sensors, which are used in tracking inventory, supply chain and assets, continues to decline. This will help in giving real-time information about hitherto grey areas of operations.

6. Energy-Efficient Computing

Again, organizations will continue to ramp up efforts in power-efficient computing about deeply energy-consuming AI computations. Some of these technologies include optical computing, neuromorphic, and DNA storage and each possesses the potential for increasing energy efficiency.

7. Hybrid Computing Models

Next-generation computing will be multiprocessor computing, combining a conventional CPU mike, GPU, and quantum computing etc., This blend will enable the various organizations to coordinate and integrate different computing models.

8. Spatial Computing

Spatial computing puts the physical and the digital environments on the same plane in a single 3D space using gadgets such as AR headsets. It will provide new forms of engaging with digital information, especially in the manufacturing business.

9. Multitasking Robots

Servo robots, also known as polyfunctional robots who can perform some tasks at once are expected to appear in the next ten years. It may be estimated that eighty per cent of the world’s human population may interact with these robots daily by the year 2030.

10. Neurological Enhancement Technologies

System for using BCI that are at least 10 years into the future will also push forward the prospects of going beyond basic human senses especially in the field of medicine. They might be from wearables to some sophisticated Brain Computer Interface.

Conclusion

In this case, the IT leaders need to select which of these trends must be capitalized on and which need to be closely watched on. Nevertheless, failure to pay attention to such advances may open the door for companies to be flooded with disruptive waves. Gartner’s take on these new technologies is that organizations should keep abreast with them to be prepared for their arrival.
