The benefits of artificial intelligence
Likewise, among the main benefits of implementing AI, global CEOs recognize 3: “increased efficiency and productivity”a “better qualification of the workforce to prepare for the future”and the “increased organizational innovation”.
On the other hand, there were areas of concern that marked 50% regarding the ”lack of regulation” and 48% in ”technical skills and abilities”. Furthermore, 76% of those surveyed believe that AI “will not affect the number of jobs in your organization”a number that sounds surprising, since many have expressed fear about the tool replacing human labor.
