Exclusive: 7 Ways AI Will Impact Life Over 25 Years
  • PublishedJanuary 15, 2025

Prof. Dr. Daniel Kleber, a renowned Professor of Corporate Management at the University of Europe for Applied Sciences in Dubai (UE Dubai), brings over 11 years of academic and industry expertise in business management. With a focus on future advancements, he delves into the transformative developments that could shape society over the next 25 years.

Dr. Kleber’s insights explore pivotal shifts, such as evolving worker privacy, the emergence of personalised education systems, and enhanced global interconnectedness to address shared challenges. His thought-provoking analysis offers a compelling glimpse into how these transformations could redefine various societal sectors.

Outlined below are seven scenarios by Dr. Kleber that is poised to reshape societies in the coming decades:

1. A more interconnected future

Globalisation and digital interconnectedness are dissolving borders, both politically and economically and creating endless opportunities for global collaboration. While trends of deglobalisation exist, I believe that life will continue to thrive in an increasingly internationalised and globalised world. This interconnectedness will be key for addressing global challenges, such as climate change, pandemics, and technological advancements, nurturing solutions that will drive humanity forward.

2. Privacy challenges in an evolving work landscape

As the 9-to-5 workday fades and digital platforms continue to evolve, the line between work and leisure will become increasingly blurred. In the future, automation will offer greater flexibility and work will become seamlessly integrated with digital tools, so data collection by companies and governments will make protecting personal information more challenging, reshaping the boundaries between work and personal space.

3. Fashion’s shift towards storytelling and authenticity

In the fashion world, customers will increasingly seek the story behind the jewellery and clothing before making a purchase. As a result, brands will shift away from relying on top-models and embrace more influencers who connect with audiences by sharing their personal stories and making the products more relatable and authentic.

4. More personalised and flexible learning and work environments

In the next 25 years, AI will revolutionise the workplace by taking over repetitive tasks, giving people the freedom to unleash their creativity and innovation. Remote work technologies, virtual reality, and metaverse platforms will eliminate the need for traditional office spaces, enabling seamless global collaboration and transforming work-life balance as we know it.

Meanwhile, education will evolve from traditional classrooms to highly personalised, tech-driven learning experiences. AI and virtual reality will craft unique educational paths for each student, offering immersive, flexible environments that cater to individual needs. This tech-powered transformation will unlock limitless potential for a smarter, more adaptable future.

5. The rise of autonomous vehicles and fleets

Autonomous vehicles will be on the rise, making traditional driving professions like taxi drivers and chauffeurs, obsolete. As we rely more on automated transportation, personal car ownership may decrease significantly and could eventually disappear. Instead, we may see urban transportation dominated by autonomous fleets, with people subscribing to mobility services rather than owning vehicles. This shift will drastically reduce both costs and environmental impact. We may also see more vehicles taking to the skies, with flying vehicles navigating cities.

6. Advances in medicine for prevention

In 25 years, breakthroughs in genetic engineering, CRISPR, and personalised medicine could lead to cures for diseases like cancer and Alzheimer’s. Early detection through nanotechnology and AI will likely prevent many illnesses before they even develop, providing a new era of prevention and treatment and transforming healthcare as we know it.

7. Breaking down language barriers

Right now, relying on Google Translate can be frustrating, it’s hard to have a smooth, natural conversation. In 25 years, however, AI-driven translation devices will make communication effortless. How cool would it be if, in 25 years, while you’re on vacation in Italy, communication with locals became effortless, allowing you to fully enjoy your time? It would also have a tremendous impact on global conversations, making language no longer a barrier for policymakers and decision-makers alike.

What does this mean for us?

The expected changes in all aspects of our lives, driven by the rise of AI and technological advancements, won’t cause us to lose traditional norms and roles as we know them today. Instead, they will enable us to evolve, offering new solutions to problems across various fields. These changes will open doors to a more flexible, inclusive and innovative society.
