Stop for a moment and think about the (virtual) environment we find ourselves in today.
Less than a year ago there was none ChatGPT (or Google Bard if you prefer), which is always just a click away from providing thoughtful, informed and researched answers to almost all your questions.
Such systems fall somewhere between work tools and novelties. But we are still in Year 0 of (generally available) artificial intelligence (AI). And year 5 will probably look completely different.
A personal digital AI assistant in your pocket is more than likely in 2028. This is the relatively uncontroversial opinion of Mustafa Suleyman, the co-founder of the AI department at Google, DeepMind.
“The way I see it, in 5 years everyone will have their own ‘personnel manager”.
“He can plan your day, better manage your time, help you invent and increase your creativity… He will be a research assistant, but also a coach and companion.“
AI assistants: analyzing Suleyman’s predictions
Many of us are on Alexa, Siri and Google Home used. At the moment they are helpful when it comes to checking the weather, turning on the lights or playing music.
But chatbots (which serve as a common example of AI) expand the imagination of what they could be.
Give them access to the sensors in your house, and instead of giving commands like “turn on the lights,” you can have a complex dialogue with your house and work together to plan and improve your life.
Do others agree with Suleyman’s prediction?
Sir Tim Berners-Lee, the inventor of the Internet, seems cautious but positive about an AI-powered future.
In the CNBC-Podcast Beyond the Valley He describes the protection of privacy as an important concern, as private individuals currently have little control over their data at large companies.
Berners-Lee envisions a world where data is stored in self-managed pods.
This gives you permission to use your data selectively – be it reading preferences, eating habits, office hours or health information.
In this world, AI assistants can play an important role, offering help and enriching their lives based on the person’s permission.
Bill Gates, co-founder of Microsoftsaid at the event AI Forward 2023 in San Francisco that personal digital assistants in the form of Alexa, Siri and Google Home Although they already exist, AI assistants will not only play a larger role in our lives, but also significantly influence internet searches.
The next generation of AI will likely be established and ubiquitous search engines like Google substitute.
Bottom line
Data is the most valuable currency in the world that all large corporations fight for. Concerns about security and data protection will continue to be relevant.
From a convenience and simplicity perspective, AI assistants are likely to bring unprecedented changes.
It may only be a few years before fully developed technology finds a permanent place in our pockets and in our lives.
Siri is now 12 years old and was born with the iPhone 4S introduced. The chances are good that the world and our everyday lives will change much faster by 2035.
