Technology is all around us, transforming our lives and the world. From augmented reality and drones to gene editing tools and 3D-printed organs, new technologies are changing the way we work, live, and play. The pace of innovation is accelerating, making it hard for organisations to keep up. That’s why it’s important to understand the latest innovation that can help your business succeed.
Trend 1: Generative AI
Generative AI is reshaping industries at breakneck speed. It’s enabling designers and artists to create complex visualisations in seconds, while writers are using it to tackle writer’s block. It’s also empowering businesses to automate content creation and personalise customer experiences.
2: Personalisation at scale and micro-moments
Mass personalisation and micro-moments are a result of advances in artificial intelligence (AI) and big data analytics, allowing for more targeted marketing campaigns and improved products and services. It’s also paving the way for personalised medical treatments, with AI-driven diagnostics and pharmacogenomics allowing doctors to prescribe medications based on a patient’s genetic profile.
3D and 4D printing and additive manufacturing can be used for a variety of applications, from prototyping to producing consumer goods and even building buildings. It can also be used to repair and maintain existing assets, reducing costs and increasing efficiency.
Energy-efficient computing is a result of more efficient architecture, code and algorithms as well as hardware that’s optimised for efficiency and the use of renewable energy to power systems. It’s also a response to regulatory and commercial pressures to improve sustainability.
