What’s New In Gartner’s Hype Cycle For AI, 2020
Gartner sees potential for Composite AI helping its enterprise clients and has included it as the third new category in this year's Hype Cycle.
Concentrating on the ethical and social aspects of AI, Gartner recently defined the category Responsible AI as an umbrella term that's included as the fourth category in the Hype Cycle for AI.
The exponential gains in accuracy, price/performance, low power consumption and Internet of Things sensors that collect AI model data have to lead to a new category called Things as Customers, as the fifth new category this year.
Thirteen technologies have either been removed, re-classified, or moved to other Hype Cycles compared to last year. Gartner has chosen to remove VPA-enabled wireless speakers from all Hype Cycles this year. AI developer toolkits are now part of the AI developer and teaching kits category. AI PaaS is now part of AI cloud services. Gartner chose to move AI-related C&SI services, AutoML, Explainable AI (also now part of the Responsible AI category in 2020), graph analytics and Reinforcement Learning to the Hype Cycle for Data Science and Machine Learning, 2020. Conversational User Interfaces, Speech Recognition and Virtual Assistants are now part of the Hype Cycle for Natural Language Technologies, 2020. Gartner has also chosen to move Quantum computing to the Hype Cycle for Compute Infrastructure, 2020. Robotic process automation software is now removed from the Hype Cycle for AI, as Gartner mentions the technology in several other Hype Cycles.
