1.Artificial Intelligence (AI)
Over the last decade, artificial intelligence has received a lot of attention. Because its major implications on how we live, work, and play are still in its infancy, it remains one of the most important new technological breakthroughs. Image and speech recognition, ride-sharing apps, mobile personal assistants, navigation apps, and a variety of other applications all use AI.
Artificial Intelligence is also used to analyze interactions in order to uncover previously unknown linkages, as well as to estimate facility demand in real-time in order to manage resources and identify dynamic trends among customers. Machine Learning, a subset of AI, is being employed in a variety of sectors, resulting in a spike in the demand for trained personnel.
2. 5G and enhanced connectivity
More than just opening webpages faster and waiting less time for YouTube videos to load, a faster and more reliable internet means more. Each development in mobile connection, starting with 3G, has opened up new internet use cases. 3G enabled internet access and data-driven services on mobile devices as bandwidths increased. The expansion of streaming video and music platforms was allowed by 4G, and 5G would do the same. Networks that employ cutting-edge technology, such as augmented reality and virtual reality, are referred to as 5G.
3. Edge computing
Edge computing is a relatively new technology that ensures minimal latency and fast data processing speeds. Edge computing brings calculations closer to data storage systems, resulting in better application performance. The high bandwidth costs of cloud platforms can function as a motivation for edge computing adoption. The technique seeks to execute fewer tasks on the cloud and move them to the user's PC or an edge server instead.
Long-distance communication between the server and the client is eliminated when the gap between data and calculation is bridged, resulting in faster processing.
4.Blockchain
Another recent widespread technological trend is blockchain. Many people mistakenly assume that Blockchain is just concerned with cryptocurrency, which is not the truth.
Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies are only a small component of the larger Blockchain technology. It employs a variety of sectors in addition to cryptocurrency, such as healthcare, supply chain and logistics, advertising, and so on.
The level of security and transparency provided by blockchain is the major reason for its meteoric growth in popularity.
5.Human augmentation
Human augmentation is a wide phrase that refers to technological advancements that aim to boost human capabilities and productivity.
Human augmentation includes physical enhancement such as prostheses, AR lenses, and RFID chips implanted within individuals.
This can help people improve their cognitive, perception, and action skills. Sensing and actuation technologies, information fusion and fission, and artificial intelligence are used to accomplish this.
