Artificial Intelligence and Cloud Computing Will Shape the Future of Tech
October 26th
Good Morning,
With more and more people isolating and distancing due to the pandemic, people are on their phones gaming more and trying to find creative ways to keep themselves occupied.
CV-19 has also created an urgent need in the rapidly growing Virtual Reality market. The VR market could grow by nearly $14Bn over the next 5 years. It is also anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 27.9% from 2020 to 2025.
The Artificial Intelligence market is expected to grow even more, nearly doubling over the next 1-2 years with a CAGR of 42.2% over the next 7 years.
Cloud computing is powering the world and has become as crucial as power, water, and money.
With its strategic acquisitions and partnerships,
Liquid Media Group Ltd. (YVR)
has gained leverage in these sectors, and is poised to potentially become the next tech juggernaut.
Liquid Media Group Ltd. is an entertainment company with a strong portfolio of content intellectual property (IP) spanning creative industries. Originating in Vancouver’s media and entertainment supercluster, Liquid’s mission is to empower storytellers worldwide to develop, produce and distribute content across channels and platforms.
AI Is Prospering And Revolutionizing The World
The widespread adoption of Artificial Intelligence has been one of the biggest stories of innovation over the 2010s, and its continuous growth and widespread adoption will revolutionize the world in the 2020s. Every tech giant of today - Amazon, Google, Apple, Microsoft, Facebook, IBM, Tesla - is investing significant time, money, and resources, to develop AI, and make it more widely used and accessible. Due to these tech giants devoting so many resources to the growth of AI, AI is becoming widely used in every industry, from automotive, healthcare, retail, finance, and manufacturing.
AI is powering the innovation of self-driving cars, is developing innovative and life-saving medical equipment, and is proving to be a valuable commodity to help “prevent, mitigate, and contain” the c-virus. Alibaba, for example, developed a diagnostic algorithm that can detect new virus cases with a CT scan, and Canadian start-up BlueDot predicted the outbreak of the virus with AI technology months before anyone else.
The AI market is already expected to nearly double over the next 1-2 years, with a CAGR of 42.2% over the next 7 years. With the way the world has changed over the last 6 months, AI is expected to be “infused virtually to every apparatus and program” and has already proven to be the significant revolutionary element of this modern era.
Cloud Computing- A Key To Worldwide Infrastructure Today And Tomorrow
Cloud computing has been a fledgling industry for years. However, just like Mobile Gaming, VR, and AI, it has grown in size and importance rapidly due to C-19.
Cloud computing has proven to be very important to worldwide infrastructure, and keeping day to day operations as normal as possible during the pandemic. This sector deals with on-demand availability of computer based resources, namely the storage of big data, communication services, infrastructure, and computing power. Cloud computing was already becoming widely adopted in the decade before c-virus. However, according to the MIT Technology Review, “the key to survival during c-19 has been a rapid revamp of IT infrastructure in search of new business models and ways of working.
