August is here, and so is the new Annual 2022 Gartner’s Hype Cycle for Emerging Technologies!

Gartner has identified 25 key emerging technologies to watch in its latest Hype Cycle for Emerging Technologies study. It distills more than 2,000 technologies into a set of two dozen “must-know” topics that have the potential to move the needle for early adopters over the next two to 10 years.

This year Gartner has grouped the new emerging technologies around three themes: Expansion of immersive experiences, Acceleration of AI Automation and Optimization of technologist delivery.

Technologies to watch in the immersive experiences category include metaverse, non-fungible tokens (NFTs), Web3, digital humans, digital twin of the customer.

In AI automation, Gartner advises keeping an eye on tech like autonomic systems, causal AI, generative design AI, and machine learning code generation.

For technology delivery optimization, technologists will rely on new ways to deliver digital products and services, including: computational storage, data observability, open telemetry, cloud data ecosystems, cloud sustainability, cybersecurity mesh architecture, and industry cloud platforms.

In this seminar Dr. Kao will present the 2022 Emerging Technology Hype Chart, explain what is a hype chart and many of the new technologies on the chart.
