Most IT Organizations Aren't Ready To Deploy AI: Survey
Techstrong.ai, Tuesday, November 19th, 2024
Companies are forging ahead on artificial intelligence (AI) adoption, but are they ready? Most admit they're less prepared to implement AI than a year ago, based on a survey released Tuesday.
The 2024 Cisco AI Readiness Index, a survey of 7,985 business leaders responsible for AI integration and deployment at organizations with more than 500 employees, reveals current AI investments don't meet expectations and many companies face a significant time crunch to make AI work within their business.
AI readiness dropped to 13% from 14% a year ago as companies struggle with potential impediments such as a lack of manpower with the proper skills to build, scale and maintain required IT infrastructure; concerns over cybersecurity risks posed by AI workloads; and long lead times to procure required technology and solutions.
