State of AI Reloaded First Half of 2025: 🔮

I’m always thinking about the “State of AI” and where the field is heading. Some of these reports are backwards looking and already semi out of date, but still salient for some of the conclusions we can draw today.

I’m sort of a chart nerd, and a fan of drawing conclusions from some of the trends that are unexpected and or divergent. Many of which project into the future. This report is probably 20 hours in the making. For visual learners curation of infographics helps to give a macro perspective unlike anything else around.
