Gartner’s 2024 Hype Cycle for Emerging Technologies has identified four key areas that will drive transformational benefits for enterprises over the next two to 10 years: autonomous AI, developer productivity, total experience, and human-centric security and privacy. As organizations navigate these emerging technologies, it’s crucial to strategize on how to exploit them in line with their ability to handle unproven technologies.
In the cybersecurity arena, Gartner emphasizes the need for human-centric security and privacy, urging organizations to develop resilience by creating a culture of mutual trust and shared risk. Emerging technologies supporting human-centric security and privacy include AI TRiSM, cybersecurity mesh architecture, digital immune system, disinformation security, federated machine learning, and homomorphic encryption.
By prioritizing human-centric security, organizations can create a more harmonious relationship between technology and humans.
Gartner also tempers expectations around autonomous AI technologies, warning of potential disillusionment due to high hype levels. The report emphasizes the need for technologies to function in harmony with human beings and for humans to be trained on adequate and appropriate usage. By understanding the potential benefits and limitations of autonomous AI, organizations can make informed decisions about adoption and implementation.
The Hype Cycle is culled from analysis of over 2,000 technologies with potential to deliver transformational benefits. By leveraging this guide, enterprises can navigate emerging technologies and make informed decisions about adoption and implementation.
