Learn about the 20 trends that will transform our lives and our businesses from the co-founder of Singularity University, Peter Diamandis.
Peter Diamandis, entrepreneur and co-founder of Singularity University has summarized in its blog the 20 meta trends that will transform industries, businesses and our daily lives over the next decade. These trends are driven by unprecedented technological advances and by the convergence of factors such as global connection speed or the consolidation of the use of artificial intelligence, among others.
Here are the 20 trends for the next decade:
1. Continued increase in global abundance.
2. Global gigabit connectivity, which will connect everything and everyone, everywhere, at an ultra-low cost.
3. The increase in human life expectancy by more than 10 years.
According to Diamandis, more than a dozen biotechnology and pharmaceutical solutions that are currently in the clinical trial phase will be available to consumers, increasing life expectancy by more than a decade. These solutions will benefit from the use of artificial intelligence in the research and market launch processes of new drugs.
The experts from the Bankinter Innovation Foundation analysed the main consequences of the ageing population and increased longevity for companies and society, as well as the opportunities it brings for innovation. You can consult the conclusions here.
4. An era of capital abundance will result in greater access to capital.
5. Augmented Reality and the spatial Web will achieve a global implementation.
6. Everything will be intelligent and intelligently integrated.
7. Artificial intelligence will achieve human-level intelligence.
8. AI-Human collaboration will skyrocket across all professions.
9. Most people will have software similar to JARVIS to improve their quality of life.
10. Cheap and globally abundant renewable energy.
11. The insurance industry is transformed from “recovery after risk” to “risk prevention”.
12. Autonomous vehicles and flying cars will redefine our journeys, which Soon they will be much faster and cheaper.
Fully autonomous vehicles, car-as-a-service fleets, and air travel sharing (flying cars) will be fully operational in most major cities in the next decade, according to Diamandis.
The infrastructure necessary for the full development of these autonomous vehicles is artificial intelligence on demand, according to our experts. Learn about the technical challenges for the development of the autonomous vehicle by clicking here.
13. On-demand production and on-demand delivery will result in an “instant economy of things.”
14. Ability to feel and know anything, anytime, anywhere.
15. Disruption of advertising.
16. Cellular agriculture will provide high-quality, cheaper, and healthier proteins. In this post, we already tell you about other food trends that are going to transform the next decade.
17. High-bandwidth brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) will be brought online for public use.
18. High-resolution virtual reality will transform retail and real estate purchases .
19. Increased focus on sustainability and the environment.
As society becomes more aware of global warming and environmental challenges, companies will invest in sustainability, both from a necessity standpoint and for branding purposes.
20. CRISPR and gene therapies will minimize disease.
