In 2025, the tech world continues to evolve rapidly, creating new directions and challenges for business and society.
Agent AI: Step Towards Autonomous Systems
Agent AI is a new generation of AI systems that can make decisions and perform complex tasks on their own without constant human intervention.
Unlike traditional models such as chatbots, agent AI has a higher degree of autonomy and adaptability.​
According to Gartner, by 2028, at least 15% of everyday work decisions will be made autonomously using agent AI. This opens up new opportunities for process automation in business, healthcare, and other industries.
However, the risks associated with AI usage in cyber threats and disinformation grows as the capabilities of agent AI become greater.
Post-Quantum Cryptography
With the development of quantum computers, traditional encryption methods such as RSA and ECC are becoming vulnerable to new types of attacks.
Post-quantum cryptography offers solutions that are resistant to quantum computing, ensuring data security in the future.
The National Institute of Standards and Technology already validated several post-quantum cryptography algorithms, and companies are beginning to implement them in their systems.
By 2029, advances in quantum computing are expected to make most traditional asymmetric encryption systems insecure.
Other Notable Tech Trends
In addition to agent AI and post-quantum cryptography, other important technology trends in 2025 include:
- AI Governance Platforms: creating and enforcing policies to use AI responsibly from an ethical and legal perspective.
- Anti-Disinformation Technologies: developing products and services to verify information and combat fake news.
- Ambient Intelligence: integrating smart sensors and tags into the environment to collect and analyze data without human intervention.
Biometric Technologies
In 2025, biometric technologies will continue to rapidly expand across financial services, government platforms, and everyday consumer applications.
Facial recognition, fingerprint scanning, and voice authentication are becoming standard tools for identity verification and fraud prevention.
According to a report by Statista, the global biometrics market is expected to exceed $83 billion by 2027.
However, the growth of biometrics raises serious concerns about data privacy and the potential for misuse for surveillance purposes.
Organisations must now invest heavily in cybersecurity measures and transparent data policies to maintain user trust and comply with global regulations, such as GDPR.
Zero-Carbon Technologies
Zero-carbon technologies are gaining momentum in 2025 as companies strive to meet global sustainability goals.
Green data centres that use renewable energy and advanced cooling systems are becoming more common.
According to the International Energy Agency, energy-efficient chips and server designs could reduce data center emissions by 45% by 2030.
Tech giants like Google and Microsoft are leading initiatives to power their infrastructure entirely with renewable energy.
This shift not only reduces carbon footprints, but drives innovation in energy storage and smart grid technologies, helping industries transition to a greener digital future.
In 2025, technology will transform industries and society, demanding responsible innovation, greater safety, and a greater commitment to sustainability.
