Global Natural Language Processing Market Size, Forecast, and Trend Highlights Over 2023 - 2035

Natural Language Processing Market size is estimated to reach ~USD 345.7 Billion by the end of 2035 by growing at a CAGR of ~28.7% over the forecast period, i.e., 2023 – 2035. In addition to this, in the year 2022, the market size of natural language processing was ~USD 16.74 Billion. The growth of the market can be attributed to the increasing use of chatbots for assisting customer services and for advertising the business. Customer service leverages NLP tools as a first point of contact to answer simple questions related to products and features. Around 75% of Chinese marketers are keen to employ chatbots for promoting their products and businesses. In addition, nearly 54% of respondents in China believe chatbots can deliver intelligent solutions to customer complaints. In addition to this, around 62% of customers would rather utilize a customer care bot than wait for human personnel to respond to their inquiries.

In addition to these, factors that are believed to fuel the market growth of natural language processing include the rising adoption of automation and higher implementation of the multi-languages in the machines. For instance, in August 2022, Ameca, created by the UK-based corporation Engineered Arts, presented a wide range of human-like expressions. Ameca's creators have now revealed a new video in which the robot is seen demonstrating its polyglot-like abilities, speaking numerous languages including Japanese, German, Chinese, French, British, and American English. Besides this, the market growth is attributed to the rising spending on AI-related technologies. In 2021, end-user spending on artificial intelligence (AI) systems in Japan was over USD 2 billion.

Global Natural Language Processing Market: Growth Drivers and Challenges

Market-Growth-Drivers

Growth Drivers

  • Growing Sector of E-Commerce – Machines can quickly identify which phrases and terms are commonly used by humans when searching for a specific product using NLP. Global e-commerce increased from about 15% of total retail sales in 2019 to almost 21% in 2021. Furthermore, by 2022, it is expected to account for 22% of total revenues.
  • Increasing Spending on the Adoption of Natural Language Processing – More than 75% of organizations in the United Kingdom with active natural language processing (NLP) efforts intend to boost the amount they spend in the next 12 to 18 months.
  • Surging Use of Social Media– NLP is used to gauge sentiment in social media. Moreover, content analytics is an NLP-driven strategy of categorizing videos. One of the most popular internet activities is using social media. Over 4 billion individuals used social media worldwide in 2021, with that figure expected to rise to more than six billion by 2027.
  • Rising Penetration of Digitization–Natural Language Processing (NLP) provide solutions to the difficulties associated with unstructured data generated by digital transformation. There are around 5 billion active internet users globally. That equates to nearly 62% of the global population. Every day, over 500,000 new internet users are added.
  • Rising Implementation of Chatbots– NLP is an artificial intelligence (AI) program that assists your chatbot in evaluating and comprehending natural human language communication with the consumers and developing an conversational systems. Globally chatbots were expected to be used by nearly 25% of customers in 2020, up from nearly 13% in 2019.

 

Challenges

  • Lack of skilled engineers for developing NLP software - There is a scarcity of AI specialists who are looking for work. There was around a 15% reduction in applicant searches for AI-related employment between May 2018 and May 2019. It indicates that extremely few people choose to work in artificial intelligence. Furthermore, in Japan, there is going to be a shortfall of roughly 270,000 artificial intelligence engineers by 2030. Moreover, according to estimates from various interest groups, Germany now has a shortfall of around 96,000 IT specialists. Therefore, the shortage of AI engineers is likely to hamper the development of natural language processing.
  • Phrase, Slang, Irony, and Other NLP Barriers
  • NLP Has Limited Functionality


Global Natural Language Processing Market Segmentation

The market is segmented and analyzed for demand and supply by enterprise size into large enterprises, and small & medium enterprises. Out of the two sizes of enterprises, the small & medium segment is estimated to gain the largest market share in the year 2035. The growth of the segment can be attributed to the increasing adoption of digitization by small and medium businesses.

Despite Inflation & Fearing Recession, Businesses Across the Globe Expected to Do Better in 2023:

In 2023, market players might incur losses due to huge gap in currency translation followed by contracting revenues, shrinking profit margins & cost pressure on logistics and supply chain.
Controlling Inflation has become the first priority for global economies from last quarter of 2022 and to be followed in 2023. With skewed economic situations, rise in interest rate by governments to control spending and inflation, spiked oil and gas prices, high inflation, geo-political issues including U.S. & China trade war, Russia-Ukraine conflict to intensify the global economic issues.
The interest rates in the U.S. may be less sensitive in 2023 as compared to 2022; sigh of relief for businesses. Positive business sentiments, healthy business balance sheets, growth in construction spending (private construction value in 2022 stood at $1,429.2 billion, 11.7 percent (±1.0 percent) above the $1,279.5 billion spent in 2021, Residential construction in 2022 was $899.1 billion, up by 13.3 percent (±2.1 percent) from $793.7 billion in 2021, non-residential construction touched $530.1 billion, 9.1 percent (±1.0 percent) above the $485.8 billion in 2021.) showcases minimal impact of recession in the country.
