Key Highlights

Generative AI will impact every industry. We forecast the generative AI market to grow from $1.8 billion in 2022 to $33 billion by 2027, implying a CAGR of 80% during this period. Of the five advanced AI technologies, generative AI is the fastest growing and will account for 10.2% of the overall AI market in 2027. The publisher estimates the total AI market will be worth $908.7 billion in 2030.

Environmental, social, and governance-or ESG-is moving into a new era, which we call ESG 2.0. In this second phase, there will be a greater focus on the ‘E’ component, with a shift from a voluntary regime to a mandatory one, driven by government mandates rather than consumer pressure.

Throughout 2023, the US export bans on advanced technology progressively choked China’s access to the high-end chips, such as graphics processing units (GPUs), necessary for AI development. Global chip manufacturing is moving fast. As the computing power necessary to train the latest AI models increases rapidly, Chinese companies will be held back by less powerful GPUs. For years, Beijing has been mobilizing national resources to develop competitive AI firms while striving for chip self-sufficiency, with modest success. China will break through in certain industry-specific AI and tech hardware applications. However, by the time China produces high-end chips to the same level as the US, it may be too late for Chinese AI companies to catch up with US AI companies like OpenAI, which have benefited from high-end chip availability.
