AI Davids and Goliaths | Predictions for 2025

Author(s)Dan Parsons

A forecast for this year by Dan Parsons, chief experience officer of Thoughtful AI.

There’s going to be a boom and bust of applied AI [artificial intelligence]. We’re going to start to see some true commercial successes, and a bunch of companies get hurt by the big model players (OpenAI, Google, etc.) releasing features.

We’re going to see a lot more progression in AI-powered art. Maybe the first AI music superstar or movie hit will go viral. We’ll see crypto come back into the fold, [and the] resurgence of NFTs [nonfungible tokens] but with a new AI spin. We’ve yet to see how AI can improve performance or security for crypto networks.
