IBM 5 in 5 predicts online digital guardian, personalized education

IBM released its new list of innovations or the “IBM 5 in 5” that might affect how you conduct your lives in the coming five years.

One such innovation is the presence of an online digital protector designed to be more contextual and agile. It will make use of historical and situational information to verify your identity over the multiple devices you use.

Another innovation for the next half decade would involve personalized education. The school or classroom will analyze your “longitudinal data” (test scores, behavior, attendance) over e-learning platforms in order to determine if you face any issues or challenges that prevent you from excelling at school.

There are three other innovations involving other facets of human life and you can check this YouTube playlist for a quick overview of the entire 5 in 5 list.
