It’s impossible for anyone today to give a precise vision of how the next ten − much less five − years will unfold in the field of AI. That’s not to say that it’s impossible to make broad predictions about AI’s impact in the coming years and decades.
Our aim here is different: to make specific predictions about AI trends for the next 12 months, then draw out key implications for business, government, and society as a whole. We’re confident in making near team forecasts because these nascent trends are already underway, though they aren’t yet attracting the attention they deserve.
