The A to Z of future tech trends

A for AI-ML-DL + Analytics: We have mastered Weak/Shallow AI. The Turing Test is probably irrelevant as certain bots have indeed started fooling humans and confusing them. In one experiment, bots beat boys in getting dates from girls via the screen interface.

In the 2013 movie Her, the protagonist is comfortable spending his life with his AI virtual assistant (voiced by Scarlett Johansson). Celebrities like Morgan Freeman, Samuel L Jackson and Amitabh Bachchan are lending their voices to the smart assistant in real life, much like Johansson in reel life. Virtual assistants are getting more control, becoming command centres of homes and offices. One day you too could find them like a reliable companion and confidante.

We are fine tuning General AI, dreaming of Super AI and theorizing the Singularity, where humans could merge with AI. Yuval Noah Harari’s Homo Deus: A Brief History of Tomorrow explores a similar concept. Elon Musk’s Neuralink is making this practical. Musk is also associated with OpenAI while Alphabet has DeepMind.

The whole bouquet along with AI transforming the world is: Machine Learning (ML) + Deep Learning (DL) + Natural Language Processing (NLP). Thanks to billions of smartphones, tens of billions of IoT devices, trillions of sensors, digitization, digitalization/ digital transformation and the acceleration of everything on the cloud, this humongous data explosion will be able to be crunched and analyzed chiefly through AI.
