Insights
8 Plausible AI Futures
In our Eight Plausible AI Futures series, we explore key AI development trajectories to help organisations build AI readiness and adaptability in this fast-evolving but often overhyped technology landscape.
AI Sunrise or Sunset? Eight Plausible Futures
Introducing the 8 plausible futures, each grounded in current trends and emerging possibilities, and offering a framework to think critically about the opportunities and challenges ahead.
Scenario 1 - Narrow AI Dominance
Under this scenario, AI remains task-driven, excelling in structured, high-ROI use-cases. While AI is already making significant impacts in industries like logistics, healthcare, and finance, its influence is likely to expand across more sectors as business find new ways to integrate AI into specialised workflows.
Scenario 2 - AI Hype Cycle Collapse
AI hype continues with almost daily announcements of breakthroughs and new capabilities. But if AI adoption stalls, whether due to economic pressures, regulatory barriers, or public scepticism, could we see another ‘AI Winter’ delaying or derailing real innovation for years?
Scenario 3 - AI Augmentation Economy
Amid concerns about automation eliminating jobs, this scenario offers a different trajectory, one where AI serves as a force multiplier, amplifying human skills, decision-making, and innovation.
Scenario 4 - AI-Driven Platform Economy
An AI-Driven Platform Economy is no longer a hypothetical, its taking shape in real time. Structural incentives, massive capital flows, entrenched network effects, and geopolitical dynamics are driving platform dominance, and laying the groundwork for potential consolidation and centralised control.
