About 89% of IT and business decision makers that Frost & Sullivan surveyed in late 2023 believe artificial intelligence and machine learning are crucial, very important, or important in achieving business goals revolving around increasing operational efficiency, supporting innovation, and improving customer experience. An equal percentage of respondents believe generative AI will be disruptive for enterprises.
In this study, Frost & Sullivan presents the key findings of the survey about the state of adoption of AI. Respondents were drawn from senior IT decision makers across multiple verticals including financial services, healthcare, retail, government, technology, and manufacturing. The major themes explored in the survey include the current state of AI deployment, key organizational goals of AI implementation, the demand for specific
AI-related technologies, and the main AI deployment models. The analysis also gives readers an understanding of the prominent AI-related technologies that enterprises are adopting.
Frost & Sullivan separately interviewed technology vendors and service providers to obtain a view about AI priorities to help end users understand the benefits and challenges of AI (as cited by peers).
