The 2030 Report uncovers targeted recommendations, technology predictions, and surprising insights, including:

  • The next decade will be shaped not by isolated breakthroughs but by interdependencies among AI, energy, and physical systems, and applied across other megatrends, such as biotech and space technologies.
  • The accelerated growth and adoption of AI are causing a seismic shift in the private sector, in contrast to the policy-laden, slow (and slowing) pace of technological advancement in health and sustainability.
  • AI-driven technologies are advancing at a much higher rate than any other previous revolution (Neolithic, Industrial, Steam, Electricity, IT).
