Google has dropped another bombshell on the digital search world. This time, they’re expanding their AI Insights to even more queries and introducing “AI Mode,” which promises a chat-like experience right inside their search engine. What does this mean for those of us who surf the web, and for those of us who make a living from clicking? Let’s take a look at how Google is changing the rules of the game and what we can expect.
Artificial intelligence
AI journalism? Imagine a morning in 2030: you wake up, open your news app, and instead of a regular article, you’re greeted by a personalized story created instantly by artificial intelligence (AI), tailored to your interests, written in your native language, and even supported by a video where an AI presenter who looks like your favorite journalist reads the news just for you. This is no longer distant science fiction, but a reality predicted by current trends in technology and media. This is AI journalism in 2030.
Apple and AI?! AI has become a central battleground for tech giants. Google is aggressively investing in its AI labs like DeepMind and Gemini, Microsoft has become a major player in generative AI with its multi-billion dollar investment in OpenAI, Meta is developing its own Llama language models, and Amazon remains strong in AI infrastructure with Alexa and AWS. Apple? It's there, but... where exactly?
Artificial general intelligence (AGI) could fundamentally change the way governments, economies and public finances operate in the next decade. Technology that is already outperforming humans in data analysis and complex problem solving could take over key tasks currently in the hands of politicians, consultants and economists. From faster and more accurate lawmaking to full transparency in the use of public funds, AGI promises a revolution that could significantly reduce human error and political bias.
If you ask experts when we will achieve artificial general intelligence (AGI), you will get different answers. Some say we will get there in 2025, others claim that AGI is already here – it’s just a little different than we imagined.
Norwegian company 1X has unveiled its latest prototype humanoid robot, Neo Gamma, a household assistant that is expected to perform various household tasks in the future. Its predecessor, Neo Beta, shown last August, already indicated the direction of development, and now an improved version is coming, intended for testing in a home environment.
Elon Musk has unveiled Grok 3, his most advanced artificial intelligence yet, promising better logical reasoning, a deeper understanding of programming, and a unique personality. Does it really outperform OpenAI's GPT-4 and Google's Gemini 2? The early data is promising.
In a globalized world, language is often the last big barrier. Businesses want to reach foreign markets, content creators want to increase viewership, and educational institutions want to spread knowledge around the world. But professional video localization is expensive, time-consuming, and often impractical. That’s where Synthesia comes in, an AI video translator that automatically translates videos into over 140 languages—including audio, subtitles, and even on-screen elements. No need for film crews, professional voice actors, or expensive studio work. But is it really as good as it sounds?
When it comes to autonomous driving, Tesla is still on top. Their FSD (Full Self-Driving) system is constantly improving, offering capabilities that were science fiction a decade ago. But now China is coming – fast, aggressively, and with something that could completely reshape the automotive market. Autonomous driving is here!
The Super Bowl is no longer just a sports spectacle – it is also the biggest stage for technology, where the future is seen not only on the field, but also between the commercials. If a few years ago the Super Bowl was full of cryptocurrency ads (and it's clear to everyone how that ended), this year's evening showed that the next big tech boom is artificial intelligence. Google and OpenAI decided to bring their vision of the AI future right in front of the eyes of more than 100 million viewers.
2024 was the year that artificial intelligence (AI) became a part of everyday life. Everything from advanced chatbots to AI assistants that write code, draw pictures and even create entire music albums. But 2025 will not just be a continuation of this story - it will be a year of breakthroughs, geopolitical battles and technological breakthroughs. These are the trends AI Trends 2025.
OpenAI has unveiled ChatGPT Deep Research, a new tool that promises to act like an AI analyst — scouring the internet, verifying sources, and coming up with structured answers. But is this really the future of research, or just another AI trick with the occasional hallucination?
