The State of AI Adoption

01

Ubiquity vs. Maturity

While 92% of companies plan to increase AI investment, only 1% have achieved mature, fully integrated deployments.

  • 90% of tech professionals use AI in their work
  • 46% of leaders use GenAI daily (up 20% YoY)
  • 52% of professional services lack formal AI policies
02

Economic Impact & ROI

Organizations are shifting from experimentation to demanding measurable returns.

  • 280x reduction in inference costs since 2022
  • 75% of leaders see positive ROI already
  • 80% expect payoff within 2-3 years
03

Workforce Productivity

AI is fundamentally altering workflows with measurable productivity gains.

  • Developers accept 30% of AI code suggestions
  • 80%+ report increased productivity
  • Top uses: data analysis, summarization
04

Stability & Safety

As AI integrates deeper into production, new complexities emerge.

  • AI improves speed but increases instability
  • 30% have little trust in AI-generated code
  • 233 AI incidents in 2024 (+56% YoY)
The Bottom Line

The Platform Prerequisite

Success is highly dependent on infrastructure. Organizations with high-quality platforms see amplified positive impact from AI. The 88% of AI pilots that fail typically lack the foundational strategy, metrics, and platform support needed to move from experiment to enterprise value.
