2024 was a huge year for tech thanks to developments in AI and releases such as the Apple Vision Pro. For this reward, we want you to make some predictions for next year. What will the biggest releases be? What trends will emerge? How will AI develop even further? Think about all of this and more as you make your 2025 tech predictions, no matter how big or small.
In 2025, AI will be like your personal helper, doing stuff like managing your money or organizing your day without you telling it what to do. It'll be like having a super smart robot friend. Also, there'll be these new computers that use quantum stuff, making things like finding new medicines or breaking codes way easier. Virtual reality and augmented reality will mix with real life more, making games and learning cooler. But because everyone's data will be flying around, we'll see new rules to keep our private stuff safe from prying eyes.
Mars is a really important goal for the human race but we have seen that to reach it we still need time to spend, a lot. Instead, re-proposing the Moon is certainly something more feasible. Although there will certainly be some difficulties, I predict that next year the first approaches will begin with some probe directly on the surface or remote spacecraft that will begin to make the first measurements.
I believe, as I see many here, that the field that is going to receive new advances in 2025 is going to be the field of artificial intelligence, and in my opinion the next move, perhaps by next year, will be the incorporation of AI in low/medium importance customer service issues as a first step; for example, a telephone service for appointment scheduling, requests for bureaucratic procedures, resolution of technical or logistical incidents, etc. Current non-human systems are very constrained and give little scope for action, both to those who offer the services and to those who require them.
I understand that the most practical thing for public and private companies will be to offer a human back-office behind this initial service, for everything that requires an additional step of personalised attention, but I believe that this first approach will also serve as a test bench for future incorporations of AI in more complex frameworks, such as medical or legal care.
Perhaps for many this could be a problem; dehumanising services and perhaps even deprotecting the human who requires the attention, but the reality is that this already happens, it already happens with automated services that are much less efficient than an AI capable of reviewing your situation in millions of databases, interweaving the results, and proposing an efficient solution to the particular need.
I really believe that a good incorporation of AI in this field could lead to great efficiency and time gains for all parties.
I'm excited to see a more powerful Chat-GPT. As an international student, I used Chat-GPT a lot (not to write essay, but to translate and understand concept). It is just like a great teacher, whenever I encounter German or English words that I don't know, I ask him to translate it into Chinese and write a brief explanation of its meaning.
However, sometimes it also gives me wrong answer since it doesn't have enough corresponding data, I would be happy to see a great improve in accuracy of GPT's answer the next year.
Moreover, I would love to see GPT being intergrated to more other applications, we've seen the release of Apple Intelligence this year. And I would be more than happy to see more similar application the next year. For example, as an Elite:Dangerous player, I would be happy to see the combination of Chat-GPT and the in-game voice assistant COVAS (Cockpit Voice Assistant). Currently we can use VoiceAttack and HCS Voice Pack to simulate an 'intelligent' voice assistant, but it's just not intelligent enough to feel like a real sci-fi AI assistant.
We all know that the physical format is used less and less and that formats such as music CDs, DVDs and Blue Ray are becoming almost obsolete and everything seems to indicate that the physical format is going to disappear and the digital one is going to prevail
however, due to economic anti piracy factors, nostalgia and many other things, it is possible that the people at Sony, Philips, Samsung or the Chinese are working on a new CD format, I don't know. I suppose it must be a mini CD that can carry any name like HB HIGH BEAM which will allow the music industry to try to sell the physical format and
I know that this is more of a wish than a viable short-term project, but I think that nostalgia always forces practicality on you, the desire to have something in your hand, and yes, I think that some new CD format, could be an evolution of the normal CD, DVD and Blue Ray , may emerge in the not-too-distant future.
CDs formats
The physic format is dying, but l’m still keeping my faith in a new format that let us to have a physical Library
The big buzz in the IT world at the moment is Generative AI but it will take many years to perfect, for sure it will keep evolving as it has, but I don't think there will be any big break-though with it next year. In years to come it's likely to replace the IT staff that are currently outsourced to countries with lower wages (ie. India). I think these countries will have more to lose with this technology as the easily automated and remotely supportable tasks will be the first on the list to go, just like they were the first to be outsourced many years ago.
A lot of companies are feeling the hurt right now due to continual rise in cost of living, which was initially caused by the Covid pandemic. My prediction is more tech companies will be losing money and will have to be innovative and find other avenues to survive in 2025.
Based on what I'm seeing from other folks, my prediction is a bit of a curveball.
I think that in the back half of 2025 we're going to see the beginning of the marginalization of generative AI. Aside from the potential host of legal/ethical issues stemming from how training data for commercial uses of genAI is sourced, I think there's a problem of optics as well. Regardless of your personal feelings on the technology or my own, the fact of the matter is that there's been noticeable backlash against it, and it's not just limited to independent artists and writers on sites like tumblr or similar niche social media platforms. Multiple unions in the entertainment industry have very publically voiced concerns regarding AI, even to the point of going on strike. Steam has begun to require the disclosure of any use of generative AI assets in games on their store in a similar manner they require for mature content. And this is still with the technology in a relatively nascent form.
I don't think it's going to almost entirely go away like NFTs, or be relegated to the domain of a diehard group of believes and scam artists like cryptocurrency, but I think you're going to see its implementation slow down or possibly stagnate for a time starting next year. It'll be largely used for LLM chatbots on corporate websites/social media pages and 'character RP' mobile apps. Someone else has mentioned the possibility of using AI to create stock footage for ads or vtuber-style avatars, and I could see that potentially taking off, but I doubt we'll see anything large-scale in the entertainment industry.
AI as a whole will continue to grow, but I think the majority of that won't come from the generative AI side of things and more from large-scale data analysis applications. Tech companies will still talk about AI cores on CPUs and graphic cards for the sake of getting their hardware into data centers, and I think AI upscaling/frame generation will become increasingly common as a way for gamers to eke out extra performance from their PC/console, but I don't see the hype for AI art/video/creative writing keeping its current pace as we move forward.
And I could very easily be wrong. In a year's time, the outcry against GenAI might just end up being 'Go Woke, Go Broke,' but from a different demographic. But I wouldn't be surprised if we see it become increasingly demphasized from this point onward.
Personnally i can see further development in the AI sector, chatgpt was just the beginning, we are seeing more development in deep fakes, there had already been test cases and apps designed for this. Now this is a bit of a pessimistic view, but looking at criminal and political influence i can see an increase in use of deepfakes that are more sophosticated for both criminal use and possible information campaigns in politics. This will becomre more important when talking about global stability with a US presidential change whoch itself will brong alot of questipna moving forward.
I think in 2024 there are many new technologies which can make easier people 's life.
First i think there are new technologies in medical and in hospitals to make fatser and safer terapies ecc...
For games is finally arriving GTA 6, the most attended game of the decade, I hope it is a really good game for players, a lot of people are saying it's coming Ninetndo switch 2,too.
I believe that in 2025 we will have new consoles, such as Microsoft's mid-generation consoles (possibly named Xbox Series X | S Pro), due to the release of the highly anticipated GTA VI, and we will also see the announcement of the new Nintendo Switch, which is currently being referred to as the Nintendo Switch 2.

I know that the gaming industry has not yet explored the full potential of this generation of consoles, but I believe we will have new releases in 2025, even with the negative reception of the new PlayStation 5.
In 2025, the generative video will take center stage. While deepfakes will remain a concern, the real buzz will be around creating generic stock videos entirely from prompts. Imagine ads filled with AI-generated clips of people chatting in an office near a whiteboard or kids laughing while cooking in a spacious kitchen—all crafted without real actors or sets.
We’ll also likely see the rise of "talking selfie heads" tailored for platforms like TikTok, offering fully customizable, AI-generated personas that bring content to life.
A whole new frontier for creativity (and ethical debates) awaits!
With the arrival of robots from Tesla, I believe that similar, more affordable machines than the Tesla Optimus will soon emerge, as $20,000 is certainly not an accessible price for most people. However, with advancements in artificial intelligence and robotics, it’s only a matter of time before we see a cheaper version of Tesla’s Optimus. This is comparable to how self-driving features and automatic parking, once exclusive to Tesla, are now available in many other cars, such as those from Nissan, Ford, and others.
I believe that in a few years, almost everyone will have access to these technologies as everyday products. Just like how, in the past, a cell phone with a camera was considered futuristic and only accessible to the wealthy, today even the most affordable phones come equipped with 4K cameras and Android. I’m convinced it’s only a matter of time before futuristic innovations become commonplace and accessible to all.

considering how fast technology is moving, I believe that next year we will see DETROIT BECOME HUMAN style automatons or perhaps smartphones that project holograms during video calls, although I hope for a version of Google Glass accessible to everyone. i hope to see the first car that can fly like futurama or return to the future
