Dell Technologies Predicts AI to Revolutionize Emerging Technologies by 2024

Dell Technologies has unveiled its forecast for 2024, predicting that the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) with other emerging technologies will revolutionize business transformation. The tech giant anticipates that AI will drive the convergence of advanced hardware, edge devices, cybersecurity, quantum computing, and generative AI within the next five years. John Roese, Dell Technologies’ Global Chief Technology Officer, stated that in 2024, AI will transition from theory to practice, with a focus on developing the security infrastructure around inference infrastructure. Roese also highlighted two significant shifts in AI integration: a shift from data training cost to overall cost of operation, and a strategic focus on a few transformative generative AI projects. Dell envisions an improved enterprise generative AI supply chain and ecosystem, with greater choices in graphic processing units and growing availability of closed- and open-source models and tools to assist businesses in implementing generative AI. Roese further emphasized the importance of the zero trust security approach, predicting it will become a central discussion as it moves from concept to reality. Additionally, Roese noted that AI usage will mostly occur where data resides, such as sensors, actuators, manufacturing environments, and retail stores. He highlighted the potential for quantum computing to excel in solving probabilistic and optimization problems, indicating a future intertwining of AI and quantum ecosystems.
