CIOs Say AI Adoption Is Moving Faster Than They Can Manage
The Register, Monday, March 2nd, 2026
Risk management? Continuity plan if our provider disappears? We've heard of these things
AI adoption is moving too rapidly say senior tech leaders, as the pressure to deploy clashes with risk management and compliance concerns.
The Logicalis Global CIO Report 2026 says that organizations are racing to invest in AI faster than they can manage it, with a gulf opening between their ambitions and the governance and skills required to execute them.
Based on a survey of 1,000 global tech leaders, the report finds that the drive to embrace AI has accelerated over the past year, with a desire for innovation the most cited reason.
A little more than half (51 percent) of respondents believe AI adoption is already moving too quickly, and fewer than half say their AI strategy is fully aligned with their wider business plan or key performance indicators.
