The 2020s: An NJIT researcher gives us a glimpse at the future of technology

Machine intelligence and human augmentation: Still in the early stages, data analytics is improving our powers of prediction, such as assessing the propensity to develop a particular disease. Over the next decade, we must refine these capabilities for decision-making under variable conditions and risks. Technological advances and ethical deliberations about how we deal with knowledge and uncertainty will shape our thinking. Robotics-assisted living and autonomous transportation: We will see more robots in the home helping the elderly and disabled to live independently. They will analyze a person's movements, for example, to help them head off stumbles.
