2025 promises to be another transformative year for data and AI. From groundbreaking advancements in reasoning models to the rise of new challengers in generative AI, the field shows no signs of slowing down. Last week Jonathan and Martijn scored their 2024 predictions, and scored highly, but what's in store for 2025?  Building on the insights from their 2024 predictions, we'll assess the future of generative AI, the evolving role of AI in education, the growing importance of synthetic data, and much more. In the episode, Richie, Jo, and Martijn discuss whether OpenAI and Google will maintain their dominance or face disruption from new players like Meta’s Llama and XAI’s Grok, the implications of recent breakthroughs in AI reasoning, the rise of short-form video generation AI in social media and advertising, the challenges Europe faces in keeping pace with the US and China in AI innovation and much more.

2024 was another huge year for data and AI. Generative AI continued to shape the way we work and interact with technology, with companies of all sizes racing to integrate AI into their products. We saw strides in tools like AI-enhanced data science notebooks, rapid adoption of generative image AI, and a steady march toward video generation AI. At the same time, foundational skills like AI literacy and data governance gained traction as critical areas for individuals and organizations to master. This time last year, DataCamp Co-Founders Jonathan and Martijn made a series of predictions and data and AI for 2024, today, they join Richie to reflect on their 2024 predictions and share their vision for data and AI in 2025. In the episode, Richie, Jonathan, and Martijn review the mainstream adoption of generative AI and its journey toward daily use, the rise of AI literacy as a critical skill, the growing overlap between data science and software engineering with the emergence of AI engineers, evolving trends in programming languages, how generative AI has moved from prototype to production, the near-mainstreaming of video generation AI, why AI hype continues to thrive and much more.

2023 was a huge year for data and AI. Everyone who didn't live under a rock started using generative AI, and much was teased by companies like OpenAI, Microsoft, Google and Meta. We saw the millions of different use cases generative AI could be applied to, as well as the iterations we could expect from the AI space, such as connected multi-modal models, LLMs in mobile devices and formal legislation. But what has this meant for DataCamp? What will we do to facilitate learners and organizations around the world in staying ahead of the curve? In this special episode of DataFramed, we sit down with DataCamp Co-Founders Jo Cornelissen, Chief Executive Officer, and Martijn Theuwissen, Chief Operating Officer, to discuss their expectations for data & AI in 2024. In the episode, Richie, Jo and Martijn discuss generative AI's mainstream impact in 2023, the broad use cases of generative AI and skills required to utilize it effectively, trends in AI and software development, how the programming languages for data are evolving, new roles in data & AI, the job market and skill development in data science and their predictions for 2024.
