After more than 20 years of blogging, I’ve written many New Year’s outlook posts like this one. I've used various approaches: sometimes focusing on big themes, as I did last year; sometimes zooming in on just one thing; sometimes simply making a series of predictions. This year, I’m going with the last approach because I enjoy it—and because it’s fun.
1. By the end of 2025, Apple and Google will leverage their existing market power to overtake OpenAI/ChatGPT in consumer AI.
2. By the end of 2025, Waymo will surpass Uber in ride volume in San Francisco and Los Angeles.
3. In 2025, direct bank-to-bank payments in certain business categories in the U.S. will exceed those made via credit card transactions.
4. A decentralized clinical trial attracts millions of participants and produces strong results, leading the Trump-led FDA not only to approve the drug but also to praise the trial methodology.
5. Dyson launches a household robot named Judy, which becomes a massive hit, selling millions of units.
6. The NFT art movement, abandoned in 2024, makes a strong comeback, with MoMA acquiring the 6529 Museum of Art for an undisclosed sum.
7. In 2025, an AI doctor with the personality of Mr. Rogers will offer free medical consultations to millions of patients.
8. A Bitcoin mining company partners with a wind farm in Newfoundland and a grid-scale battery storage facility to power an AI data center, demonstrating a new model for sustainable infrastructure.
9. Arizona’s Education Savings Account (ESA) program enrolls over 25% of K–12 students in the state, forcing the closure of multiple local schools.
10. An animated feature film created entirely by AI receives an Oscar nomination.
11. New York City launches an air taxi service, offering an alternative to subway commuting.
12. TikTok converts all its videos into memecoins tradable on decentralized exchanges worldwide.
13. USV’s chief AI robot goes rogue, gains access to USV’s crypto wallet, and begins making seed investments—one of which delivers a substantial return.
“Buckle up,” 2025 is going to be a wild year.
