In just a couple of years, AI turned from a sci-fi vision to a household buzzword, promising to disrupt personal lives, corporate operations and societies as a whole in ways that were previously unimaginable, thus forcing individuals and companies alike to utterly reinvent themselves. The most significant advantage offered is the fact that, for the first time in human history, we can have access to and the ability to easily and effectively combine all available knowledge, transcending functions, industries, people, or even time.

Despite massive interest in riding this wave of innovation, though, Accenture’s research in 2024 indicated that scaling enterprise-wide AI-related value is tougher than expected, with only one-third (36%) of the researched companies worldwide having deployed generative AI solutions at scale and only 13% have experienced significant economic value at speed. This indicates that although technology does advance in leaps, human adjustment requires more time due to an understandably slower mindset shift, still persisting (though diminishing) high costs, and inevitably lengthy periods of implementation, especially regarding data collection and organization.
