AI adoption still in early stages for most global enterprises: Accenture

Artificial intelligence (AI) adoption is still nascent across most enterprises, a survey by US-based IT firm Accenture said, as organisations try to frame and put in place an AI strategy that is cost-effective and built on trust.

Accenture’s survey of 2,000 global executives showed that 86 per cent companies across nine industries and 15 countries are either experimenting or progressing with their AI plans, while only a handful are making some meaningful strides. Just 7 per cent are ‘fast followers’ and 8 per cent ‘front runners’ in the AI space.
