AI adoption surges, but companies still struggle to turn productivity gains into profits: McKinsey

New Delhi [India], September 6 (ANI): Companies are rapidly moving artificial intelligence from experimentation to enterprise-wide deployment, but the financial payoff from those investments remains limited, highlighting a growing gap between AI’s impact on individual workers and its contribution to corporate earnings, according to a research report by McKinsey.

Nearly nine in 10 respondents to McKinsey’s 2026 Global Survey on AI said their organisations regularly use AI in at least one business function, while the share reporting enterprise-wide scaling rose to 44 per cent from 38 per cent a year earlier. The use of AI across three or more business functions also increased to 56 per cent from 51 per cent.
