Google’s CEO, Sundar Pichai, recently talked about the future of generative artificial intelligence (AI). He said that by 2025, AI might not change our lives as much as it has already. When OpenAI introduced ChatGPT two years ago, it got a lot of attention, and now big tech companies like Google have similar AI models. But getting significant advancements in AI will be harder moving forward, according to Pichai.
He explained that the easy improvements have mostly been made, and now we need tougher challenges to see more exciting developments. “The hill is steeper,” he said, meaning it will demand more effort and innovation to make major breakthroughs.
Current AI models, like ChatGPT and Google’s Gemini, are going to continue improving, especially in understanding and reasoning. These enhancements could lead to more businesses finding ways to earn money through AI, although big investments—over a trillion dollars in the coming years—haven’t yet resulted in profits.
Other tech leaders, like Microsoft’s Satya Nadella, share similar thoughts. They view technology growth as unpredictable, with periods of slow progress followed by rapid advancements. However, OpenAI’s CEO, Sam Altman, believes there are no limits to how much AI can improve over time.
Pichai adds that even small improvements in AI can help more people use it effectively. He mentioned that jobs related to AI, like AI trainers, pay pretty well—averaging over $64,000 a year. He believes that in ten years, computer programming will be easier for many more people to learn and work in.
