Top game changing technology trends shaping the IT industry
summary
Eight actionable trends focus on turning models into reliable systems: harness engineering++ (prompts, memory, skills, storage, orchestration, tool calls, observe/verify) with LangChain and Vivek Trivedi’s agent= model + harness framing; an OpenAI case where agents run a five‑month, five‑person project without human coding; an experiment that spirals to ~150,000 lines of Rust until code‑quality gates and linters fix it; durability via checkpointing and replay (Temporal, Restate, Golub); toxic‑flow analysis with MCP scan and METRE ATLAS; evals as gates not gauges; sandboxing and explicit ontology/knowledge‑fabric layers.
