With 2025 now upon us, and tools like ChatGPT, Gemini, and Llama only going to develop further, the AI landscape will continue to morph and grow. From models’ foundations to their market use, every step in between will be different this year than last. So with that in mind, we made predictions about what AI will look like over the course of the year.
On the model internal side, we believe that speech as the AI-native will become much more prevalent—meaning that more and more AI will be built to interact with users through voice. Training and subsequent research will remain crucially important as models intake greater amounts of data.
On the agent side, the focus will shift from large agents to small, hyper-focused, agile ones. We expect machine learning operations will take place on local cloud based apps. And VCs will get serious about funding AI companies, as we will see real ARRs in 2025.
Ultimately, 2025 will mark another year of exponential growth for the AI industry, and we plan to further develop our vision as the disruption application for the AI era we find ourselves in.
