It is that time of year again: the time of Top lists and crystal ball predictions for the coming year, and I would be remiss if I did not take advantage of this opportunity to highlight some of the most important, relevant, or just plain interesting tech trends I will be watching in 2024. Looking across my areas of coverage, which include devices, semiconductors, automotive, and the policy and regulatory space, I have identified several innovation threads and market-disrupting trends that I feel are most likely to define those market segments in 2024. In no particular order, they are:
- AI PCs redefining the PC market
- The “AI chips” market growing beyond the data center
- A return to growth for the PC market
- The proliferation of on-device AI
- Voice, eye tracking, and gesture recognition’s growing impact on XR design
- The beginning of an adjustment to the ADAS framework
- ADAS and connectivity features expanding from 4-wheeled vehicles to 2-wheeled vehicles
- Foldable screens finding new use cases
- The limited effectiveness of US restrictions on the sale of advanced AI chips to China
Our latest brief, Market Insight Report: 9 Key Technology Sector Trends That Will Impact the Device, Automotive, and Semiconductor Segments in 2024, analyzes the devices, semiconductors, automotive, and the policy and regulatory spaces, and explores how 2024 promises to be a significant year for the technology sector.
