Future vision deviates significantly from my original predictions
In a comprehensive special report published by Tom's Guide, part of the Future network, the world in 2035 is painted as a place where technology continues to evolve and transform our lives, yet remains recognisably close to what we know today.
Apple's iPhone Business: Tom’s Guide projects that despite rising competition from AI-driven wearables and advanced sensory technologies, Apple’s iPhone ecosystem will remain robust and relevant. The report emphasises that the iPhone will continue to hold its ground in the tech landscape, benefiting from incremental improvements and integration with emerging technologies rather than being rendered obsolete.
Artificial Intelligence: The analysis envisions AI evolving beyond today’s capabilities towards proactive, emotionally intelligent chatbots and ambient computing that integrates seamlessly into daily life. AI will underpin smart glasses and contextual devices, enabling them to be deeply aware of user environments and social interactions. This will include AI capabilities capable of real-time recognition and social assistance, such as smart contact lenses scanning environments and delivering instant, relevant social information.
Wearable Technology: Wearable technology is expected to undergo significant advancements with features like hybrid energy systems that allow passive recharge throughout the day (e.g., body heat or embedded solar panels), drastically improving battery life. Smart contact lenses may offer advanced functions such as night vision and zoom capabilities through adaptive optical materials. Wearables will increasingly function as personalised assistants embedded in daily life, enhancing human capabilities.
Robotics: Robotics will shift from early-stage humanoid concepts to practical applications, especially in household assistance. Robots will become more commonplace, serving as functional helpers rather than solely as experimental or novelty devices. The report highlights a transition towards robots that are emotionally aware and more contextually intelligent, contributing to both domestic and other sectors.
Other Noteworthy Predictions: - Displays will evolve from Micro-LED experimental phases to mainstream use and possibly beyond, with next-generation OLED panels delivering superior visual experiences. - Ambient computing will be a norm, enabled by developments such as stretchable batteries integrated with solar recharge technology. - Interviews with industry leaders provide nuanced perspectives, reinforcing a future that balances recognisable technology with revolutionary advancements.
The detailed analysis by Tom’s Guide bridges current technological trends with realistic future projections, avoiding overly speculative or disconnected futurism. It offers an accessible yet rich view of a near-future world shaped by iterative and transformative tech innovation from multiple angles, making it a valuable resource for understanding what 2035 might look like in technology.
