The use of artificial intelligence (AI) plays a key role here: AI can be used to automate processes, save resources, increase efficiency and even open up new business models.
Uncertainties and Concerns in the Use of AI
We know that the topic of AI is still a green field for many companies and that there are often uncertainties and concerns:
Technical challenges: Implementing AI can be complex and expensive. Companies need a suitable software architecture and the necessary internal skills to successfully implement AI projects.
Data acquisition for machine learning: Large amounts of data are required for the development and use of AI applications. This data must be of high quality and relevant to the specific business use cases.
Uncertainties about use cases:
Not all processes in a company are suitable for the use of AI. It is important to carefully identify the use cases in advance before planning intelligent automation, for example.Regulatory uncertainties: In some areas, such as data protection, liability issues and security, there is still no clear regulatory framework for the use of AI. This can unsettle companies and inhibit investment in AI projects.
According to the latest Bitkom survey (September 2023), these points are just some of the concerns that prevent German companies from investing in artificial intelligence.
A third of German companies believe they have missed the boat when it comes to AI
This is also evident from the above-mentioned study, for which over 600 companies from all sectors in Germany were surveyed on a representative basis.
When asked how companies rate themselves compared to the competition when it comes to the use of AI, only 15 percent said they consider themselves to be “among the pioneers”. 43% consider themselves to be laggards and 38% even believe that they have completely missed the boat.
However, the study also predicts that In 2024, three quarters of all companies surveyed plan to invest in the use of artificial intelligence. We can see from this: The awareness of the relevance of AI is there - only the “how” seems to be holding organizations back.
A recent diva-e customer survey revealed a similar trend: 90 percent of respondents are planning to use AI in specific projects, but only a third - as of January - expect it to be used extensively and systematically in 2024. You can find more insights into the results of the survey here.
What exactly do I need? How do I position myself technologically correctly? Where do I get the skills and resources I need?How do I ensure that data protection and other guidelines are adhered to?
All of these questions are perfectly legitimate.
