      However, there are some that simply persist a lot longer than others. A perfect example of which is the internet. From ARPANET to the World Wide Web<\/a>, it has come a very long way. It became the foundation of so many other technological advancements and until now, improvements upon it is being made.<\/p>\n

      Just like the internet, there are other technological developments that have persisted for some time now; though not as old. But most of the time, they are quick to change. In order to help you keep up with the 2019 IT trends, we\u2019ve listed some of them.<\/p>\n

      1. Artificial Intelligence<\/h3>\n

      Artificial Intelligence, hyped as it may be years ago, is still a growing trend. It has already shown lots of functionalities that people 10 years ago would think are only possible in sci-fi movies. It\u2019s not, however, showing any sign of momentum halt at all. New applications for personal, professional, and business purposes are being discovered for AI every day. If it\u2019s the future of AI we\u2019re talking about, the perfect description for that would be \u201climitless potential.\u201d<\/p>\n

      It\u2019s not a surprising turn of events, however. That\u2019s because the very notion of machines thinking and behaving like human beings are revolutionary. From the first AI program in the 1950s, this field has come a long way. People of today are exposed to artificial intelligence on a daily basis; a testament to its wide range of applications.<\/p>\n

      It\u2019s present in home appliances, on phones, in hospitals, agriculture, military, government, and the list goes on. AI has also become the basis for tons of technological innovations such as face recognition, data processing, speech recognition, etc. Furthermore, the technology can also be used for business front such as an AI-powered customer service<\/a>.<\/p>\n

      However, as many benefits as it brings, there\u2019s still a lot of controversies revolving around the field. Robots uprising is perhaps the most popular concern regarding the advancement of AI technologies. But there are more pressing issues than that such as the dissolution of many jobs. Some experts claim that by 2030, over 73 million jobs would become obsolete.<\/p>\n

      It\u2019s not all bad news, however, since automation will create new jobs and welcome various existing professions into its space. This includes developers, testers, programmers, tech specialists, etc. A degree of retraining might be required for some people but it\u2019s better than completely displacing them.<\/p>\n
