Keeping an eye on emerging technological trends is really important because it could potentially end up allowing us to peek into what the world might look like in the near future. It also helps us to understand what the underlying trends that govern future tech actually are, and this can help us to prepare for the future that is coming with all things having been considered and taken into account.
Gartner Inc. recently released their Hype Cycle for Emerging Technologies, and a lot of this tech involves stuff that we have seen in social media buzz and the like. NFTs (non-fungible tokens) are clearly a big aspect of where future tech might go, however, it is important to note that not all of the tech that is receiving a lot of hype is going to remain truly relevant no matter what anyone else has to say on the matter.
What this report from Gartner does is that it helps you to see emerging tech for what it truly is by cutting through the hype. There are three themes that Gartner has identified, and tech that adheres to these themes tends to have a higher likelihood of attaining a true level of acceptance and widespread adoption due to the reason that it would fulfill a need that people have which might not be getting discussed all that often right now. People usually are unaware of what needs they actually have, only fully realizing this need after it has been fulfilled by an innovative form of tech that they previously didn’t see coming.
One the themes and trends that Gartner identified was that of building or engineering trust. This pertains to improving security in various industries and making them a great deal more reliable, and decentralization is a key component of this. Cloud tech and NFTs conform to this theme pretty securely, as do various forms of cyber security all of which are going to become really relevant as time goes by.
The second theme that was discussed was that of growth acceleration. Businesses are becoming increasingly streamlined, and it is now quite widely known that if a business stops growing at an accelerated rate year on year it is in danger of becoming obsolete and getting surpassed by some other company that will take its place at the top. Artificial intelligence plays quite a huge role here, since it can bring down costs and help make businesses more efficient thereby allowing them to truly grow as much as they need to.
The final theme that Gartner noted was that of disruption and change. Tech that facilitates any kind of disruption is likely to be a major player in the long run from a tech perspective. Any tech that conforms to this theme is likely going to help a lot of major corporations to find a way to enter markets that they might not have otherwise been all that successful in for a wide range of reasons all of which will help the tech that we are referring to become ever more relevant.
