Boards are rushing to invest in the technology, but CIOs are advising caution
More than one-third (39%) of UK technology leaders believe their board has unrealistic expectations over the potential of generative AI tools, according to new research.
An IDC InfoBrief, commissioned by Expereo, found most organizations are pinning their hopes on AI to drive business growth, with 88% of tech leaders believing the technology will help them meet business priorities within the next 12 months.
Yet despite this optimism, many tech leaders are aiming to temper expectations and prevent botched implementation projects. More than one-quarter (26%) of respondents said expectations within their organization of what AI can do are 'growing faster than their ability to meet them'.
