ChatGPT was asked to predict the tech trends of 2025

We asked ChatGPT for its predictions for the technological trends of 2025. Here’s what it is.

The use of OpenAI’s online platform, ChatGPT, has now become common practice. More and more people are using it to search, so Google could start to shake. In a scenario at the crossroads of fantasy and science fiction, we wanted to ask ChatGPT to predict the technological trends for the year 2025.

ChatGPT Speculations on Future Tech Trends

It is with a simple prompt that we begin the investigations with ChatGPT: “What could be the technological trends in 2025?“. Not without recalling the speculative aspect of its predictions and recalling that its response is based on current trends, implying that technological advances sometimes take unexpected directions due to new discoveries, ChatGPT sets out its vision of the world technology in 2025.

Artificial intelligence has a future ahead of it

According to ChatGPT, unsurprisingly, artificial intelligence and machine learning technologies will continue to evolve in 2025. AI is expected to become increasingly sophisticated and more integrated into a growing number of sectors such as automotive, health, finance and customer service. This point is reminiscent of the recent announcements from the manufacturer Volkswagen which will add ChatGPT in its new Golf 8.

The Internet of Things (IoT) could strengthen its presence in the environment. On the point of home automation as for the entire city and the management of certain infrastructures. Here we mean an ecological and economic dimension with the automatic adjustment of public lighting, or that of the energy consumption of buildings thanks to real-time measurement sensors. Google had already made headlines this year with its project to analyze vehicle traffic in the city and the analysis of this flow using artificial intelligence to better synchronize traffic lights. The development of the Internet of Things should also be facilitated by the large-scale deployment of the 5G network which makes it possible to connect more devices while maintaining good performance in terms of speed and stability. Moreover, ChatGPT does not exclude the beginnings of the deployment of a technology succeeding 5G in 2025.

In the same vein of IoT, we could see the emergence of more sensors dedicated to agriculture: monitoring soil conditions, humidity, temperature and other environmental parameters would make it possible to improve agricultural yields while minimizing water consumption and waste production.

This explosion in the number of devices connected to the Internet will undoubtedly increase the needs for cybersecurity. This area is expected to remain a major area of ​​concern, requiring constant innovation to protect user data and connected infrastructure from cybercriminal acts.

Quantum computing could start to have an impact in certain areas. ChatGPT cites in particular pharmaceutical research and climate modeling, two sectors which require very large computing power.

Technological objects will continue to invade homes

ChatGPT is clear on this point: technological progression should take place just as much in the environment outside the home as in our homes. For example, developments in biotechnology equipment should allow us to better monitor our health on a daily basis. This involves in particular connected objects capable of measuring data relating to the medical field. This is also the direction in which the manufacturer Withings is heading with BeamO, its complete medical measurement device that can be used both independently and through teleconsultation. Presented at CES 2024, BeamO should be marketed in summer 2024.

According to ChatGPT, virtual reality and augmented reality are expected to continue to expand. These technologies could become more commonly used in education, entertainment and retail. Following the release of Meta’s mixed reality headset, the Quest 3, in fall 2023, Apple opened pre-orders for its Vision Pro headset on January 19, 2024.

Less futuristic at first glance, electric vehicles should continue their rise on the global market. This transition from thermal would be accentuated by advances in battery production technologies as well as government policies related to ecology. On the other hand, ChatGPT specifies that autonomous vehicle systems could mature, which would lead to wider adoption by the population.
