Easy prediction for AI 2025 is that the gains in AI model capability will continue to grow much faster than (a) the vast majority of people’s understanding of what AI can do & (b) organizations’ ability to absorb the pace of change. Social change is slower than technological change. This all means that things will get weirder but that the weirdness will be unevenly distributed..
AI models and AI agents can really transform businesses as well as educational institutions. But if there is resistance to change then the people are embracing it, will move far ahead of the competition
Whoever said ” We have Paleolitic Brains, Medieval Institutions and Godlike Technology - has never been more right. Technological opportunities are running circles around Political decisionmaking necessary to avoid total polarization and atrophying AI Ecochambers threatening Society the same way Religious Ecochambers did 400 years ago. A unified stance towards Scientific Truth/Facts visavi Lies/Fakes through prioritizing development of Certified Truth Filters, will be a sine qua non for the preservation of Democracy, in a World of a growing number of Autocracies based on feeding citizens with an AI generated Slop confounding Truth with Lies. True Insight and Knowledge needs to be Absolute- never Relative, if we want to preserve Freedom.
continuous AI education and training is the key to the future success of every organization.
Fascinating insights on the rapid growth of AI capabilities. Truly thrilling to witness such developments outpace societal adaptation. How do you foresee organizations adapting to these changes?
I see big opportunities for enterprises that rethink their core operating model under an AI-centric paradigm vs just enhancing the legacy ‘hairball’ that has been constructed with many processes, systems, ‘tools’, and roles that may no longer be needed. At the end of the day, enterprises make things…..and they want customers to buy what they make. Anything that sits between these two endpoints should enable the desired outcome. If functional leaders were to design what sits in the middle from a clean sheet, knowing what Gen AI can do, would they design it to look/work the way it does today? I wouldn’t:). This represents huge opportunities for those who think beyond incremental. And for those capable of driving change that works in complex orgs….starting with ‘what should be done first and what might the future look like so we know where we’re heading’. And of course, all this needs to be accomplished without breaking things, so understanding the current hairball and why it is the way it is is also super important. You don’t want to pull the wrong thread and have the whole thing unravel at once!
Not if people take my ideas into consideration.
I think when the AI becomes the interface, we will not need many organizations- for example, why need excel when the AI system is excell>? Why do you need shopping apps when the AI is able to automatically configure API interfaces on its own and do shopping and buying for you based on your understood needs that it has stored? Literally everything will change with regards to communication if you have access to the AI. As long as you have an interface, your nonphysical and digital needs are satistfied by the end of 2025

7moSpot on—AI capability is outpacing both understanding and adoption at a staggering rate. The uneven distribution of ‘weirdness’ is a fascinating thought—some industries will adapt quickly, while others will struggle to keep up. Which sectors do you think will handle the pace best in 2025?
