Bill Gates is one of the most influential voices in technology and has recently revealed what he believes will be the next device of the future in homes around the world.
For the tycoon, artificial intelligence will not only continue to revolutionize the workplace, but will also be completely integrated into our daily lives, to the point that “we will all have an intelligent agent“. This device, which combines advanced AI capabilities with practical designcould become as essential as mobile phones or personal computers.
Bill Gates shared this prediction on the podcast Possible by Reid Hoffman and Aria Finger. There he highlighted that technological development around AI aims to facilitate everyday tasks, eliminate technical barriers and transform the interaction between humans and machines.
Just as Microsoft democratized access to computers, The billionaire is confident that this next technological leap will be equally inclusive.
Bill Gates’ technology predictions: AI in homes
Computer Today
The presence of AI in our daily lives is already evident. Devices such as cleaning robots have ceased to be mere devices and have become intelligent tools capable of recognizing objects, learning from their mistakes and optimizing their functions. But this is just the beginning.
More advanced prototypes, such as robotic pets designed for entertainment or security, are in development. These robots will not only be functional, but will seek to meet emotional and social needs, approaching the idea of intelligent assistants and companions.
On the other hand, humanoid robots are rapidly advancing towards reality. Companies like Tesla, led by Elon Musk, have already announced that their Optimus Gen will be operational in factories in 2025, with plans to expand their use to homes. This technology promises to revolutionize sectors such as construction, hospitality and domestic assistance, integrating naturally into our routines.
Gates’ vision for the future revolves around a centralized device that acts as our “intelligent agent”. This assistant, powered by AI, will not only manage simple tasks such as organizing agendas or answering emails, but will also be able to coordinate other smart devices in the home, learn our preferences and anticipate our needs.
The tycoon assures that this agent will represent a profound change in the relationship with technology. By using natural language, it will allow anyone, regardless of their technical skills, to program or manage data easily. This will not only make the technology more accessible, but will also eliminate the need for specialized software in many areas.
The Microsoft founder also emphasized how AI will simplify the landscape of current applications and tools. According to the billionaire, instead of depending on multiple apps, these functions will be integrated into unified systems, managed by the intelligent agent. This way, people will be able to focus on what really matters, delegating routine tasks to these devices.
“We will all have a personal agent who will assist in our tasks, identifying which aspects deserve our direct attention,” he said.
Furthermore, for him, the impact of AI on education will be notable. The possibility of interacting with devices that understand natural language will democratize access to knowledge and will open new opportunities for people of all ages and educational levels.
