The 12 Tech trends that could change everything in the next Era..

1.      AI-as-a-service

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is one of the most transformative tech evolutions of our times. As I highlighted in my book 'Artificial Intelligence in Practice', most companies have started to explore how they can use AI to improve the customer experience and to streamline their business operations.

2.     5G data networks

The 5th generation of mobile internet connectivity is going to give us super-fast download and upload speeds as well as more stable connections.

3.     Autonomous Driving

While we still aren’t at the stage where we can expect to routinely travel in, or even see, autonomous vehicles in 2020, they will undoubtedly continue to generate a significant amount of excitement.

4.     Personalized and predictive medicine

Technology is currently transforming healthcare at an unprecedented rate. Our ability to capture data from wearable devices such as smartwatches will give us the ability to increasingly predict and treat health issues in people even before they experience any symptoms. 

When it comes to treatment, we will see much more personalized approaches. This is also referred to as precision medicine which allows doctors to more precisely prescribe medicines and apply treatments, thanks to a data-driven understanding of how effective they are likely to be for a specific patient

5.     Computer Vision

In computer terms, “vision” involves systems that are able to identify items, places, objects or people from visual images – those collected by a camera or sensor. It’s this technology that allows your smartphone camera to recognize which part of the image it's capturing is a face, and powers technology such as Google Image Search.

6.     Extended Reality

Extended Reality (XR) is a catch-all term that covers several new and emerging technologies being used to create more immersive digital experiences. More specifically, it refers to virtual, augmented, and mixed reality. Virtual reality (VR) provides a fully digitally immersive experience where you enter a computer-generated world using headsets that blend out the real world.

7.     Blockchain Technology

Blockchain is a technology trend that I have covered extensively this year, and yet you’re still likely to get blank looks if you mention it in non-tech-savvy company. 

8.   Ultra fast Super computer

9.     AI enabled robots -The current technology trends in 2020 seems bright in terms of humans working in parallel to robots. A lot of being said about AI taking away human jobs, but on the contrary, experts have stated that AI is expected to create up to 3 new job opportunities in-lieu of 1 job that it takes. Which means we shall be able to witness the high performance, efficiency, and accurate strategy and planning across major sectors

10. Self-driving cars -Here is one among many popular future technology ideas that are being widely researched and nearing implementation on a full scale. Self-driving cars has received a major boost owing to multiple positives that it arrives with. With machines taking over, a seamless ecosystem of such cars can emerge that can result in fewer accidents, quicker transit times, and lower human fatigue which further impacts business productivity positively. There is also the advertising opportunity where humans not involved in concentrating on the driving aspect can concentrate on the advertising boards.

11. Drone ecosystem -Drones are slowly taking over with them being put to use for surveillance and mapping purposes. Military applications of drones are also being highly sought after. And now companies like Amazon and Jubilant Foodworks are employing drones for delivery of good and pizzas respectively. 

12. Medical advancement with AI and nanobots  - Nanobots are being extensively researched to detect and cure diseases, which includes direct drug delivery. Some more future technology ideas 2050 include capturing human memories and emotions to create a forever surviving AI based artificial body as a natural human. New drug development can also push the human lifespan, while artificial organs can help end the dependency on donors.
