Pew Research Center's Internet & American Life Project

Lee Rainie will present findings from Pew Research Center’s report titled "The Internet of Things Will Thrive by 2025" to the American Bar Association Section of Science & Technology law on March 30, 2016. The report presents the views of hundreds of “technology builders and analysts” on the question of whether Internet of Things will have widespread and beneficial effects on the everyday lives of the public.

How will the Internet of Things look by 2025?
Pew Research Center – Imagining the Internet Center (Elon University) November 25–January 13, 2014 2,551 respondents 19% research scientist 10% authors, editors, journalists 9% entrepreneurs, biz leader 8% tech developers 8% activists 7% futurists, consultants 2% legislators, lawyers 2% pioneers
Digital Life in 2025 The Internet will become ‘like electricity’ — less visible, yet more deeply embedded in people’s lives for good and ill
The rollout

HOMESHOMES SMART SYSTEMS FINDABLE ITEMS WARNING SERVICES ANTICIPATORY & MEDIA DELIVERY SURFACES
COMMUNITIES COMMUNITIES MORE EFFICIENT & CHEAPER SERVICES TRANSPORTATION & PARKING POLLUTION CROWDSOURCED INTELLIGENCE
ENVIRONMENT CLIMATE & POLLUTION MONITOR EARTH SYSTEMS TRACK WILDLIFE & HABITAT INFRASTRUCTURE WARNING SYSTEMS & WEAR AND TEAR
Bright sides
Theme 1) Information sharing over the Internet will be effortlessly interwoven into daily life making us smarter, safer, more efficient. ‘Computication’ involving ‘smart agents’ will be commonplace.
Theme 2) Artificial intelligence, augmented reality, wearable devices, and big data will make people more aware of their world and their own behavior – which will especially aid in health care.
Theme 3) Social and business encounters will be shaped by virtual reality and telepresence. Interfaces with data and objects will change and become easier. Speech and gesture interaction will matter more
Theme 4) The environment and structures themselves will become ‘intelligent’ and expand our knowledge about them – plus, enable their own ‘maintenance’ and ‘repairs’
Dark sides
Theme 1) Privacy will be more at risk and something perhaps only the privileged will enjoy.
Theme 2) The nature of work will change in unprecedented ways as robots and artificial intelligence assume greater roles in job functions
Theme 3) Dangerous divides between haves and have-nots may expand, resulting in resentment and possible violence.
Theme 4) Abuses and abusers will ‘evolve and scale.’ Human nature isn’t changing. Those pursuing crime, laziness, bullying, stalking, stupidity, pornography, and dirty tricks have new capacity to make life miserable for others.
Theme 5) Humans and their organizations may not respond quickly enough to challenges presented by complex networks.
Fear not
