Tech that’s going to take over 2018

Whether you’re an avid tech fan or just a regular consumer, it is exciting to see the latest tech developments and trend that we’ll see in the future.

2017 was full of virtual reality and smart devices, as well as many new and advanced phones, but what will this year look like and how will the new tech change our lives?

Artificial Intelligence - Artificial Intelligence (AI) isn’t just getting better and more popular, it is being incorporated into almost everything. From new platforms, apps and devices, AI is only accelerating in 2018 and it looks like by the end of this year it’ll be even more present.

5G – It is a possibility that we may see 5G with 5G smartphones by the end of 2019. The 5G network is likely to be 10 times faster than 4G and will change how people use the internet and how developers create apps. Gear up for a new generation of connectivity.

Data Collection – Almost every business in the world knows the power of consumer data, so data collection is high on the list of priorities. With people talking more and more to smart devices throughout the day as well as relying on them for their daily tasks, a lot of companies will have access to unlimited amounts of consumer data. Although this will reduce your privacy in 2018, there are many other positive outcomes.

Job Automation – Do you have the feeling that your job will soon be replaced by a machine? AI is advancing at a constant rate, enough that it can replace some white collar jobs. However, jobs will not be fully replaced, only heavily automated – and we’ll just have to adapt!
