About this report

A frontier-technology outlook that treats AI as a force interacting with several other developing fields. The report moves through pathways toward more general intelligence, physical AI, energy and compute, quantum and next-generation computing, trust and space, then identifies additional areas to watch. Its research and methodology sections help frame the resulting judgments. Use it to broaden a technology watchlist, explore dependencies between emerging sectors or start a long-horizon investment discussion, rather than read its frontier themes as near-term delivery commitments.

The PDF is in English. This introduction and content guide are available in your selected language.
