It represents technologies that improve both the cognitive and physical abilities of humanity - technologies like biochips, augmented intelligence and robotic skin.

Improvements in sensor technology and their communication through the IoT is leading to more data and more insight.

It attempts to tell us which technologies will survive the hype and have the potential to become a part of our daily life.

Excitement almost always exceeds realistic expectations when technologies gain mainstream appeal.Īs technology advances, it is human nature to get excited about the possibilities and to get disappointed when those expectations aren't met.Īt its core, the Hype Cycle tells us where in the product's timeline we are, and how long it will take the technology to hit maturity. Last year, Gartner reported Deep Learning and Biochips were at the top of the hype cycle - in the "peak of inflated expectations." While I'm excited about both industries, there was certainly more buzz than actual improvement in those spaces last year. I look forward to Gartner's report each year as a benchmark to compare reality against. Sorting through predictions of which new technologies are going to impact the world and which are going to fizzle out can be an overwhelming task. Technology is a massive differentiator in today's competitive landscape.
