- Geopolitical tensions have an impact on American companies in particular
- AI expectations are not realistic
- Networks need major upgrades
Almost one in five American organizations experienced security incidents following their AI deployments according to new research commanded for EXEREO.
The report reveals how two out of five organizations (41%) have trouble finding and preserving cybersecurity talents, but cybersecurity is a close second with regard to 38%investment priorities, compared to networking and connectivity (43%).
More broadly, the ongoing geopolitical tensions also affect how organizations are deployed to deploy artificial intelligence, 50% noting the impact of these events on their growth strategies.
Precipitated AI deployments become expensive
Even before it happens to the point of a potential violation, research reveals how one in three global CIOs believes that the boards of directors have unrealistic expectations concerning the impact of the AI - and more than a quarter (27%) of American technology leaders feel in the same way.
This is a trend that seems to be more worrying abroad, with 28% of world technology leaders saying that IA expectations are increasing more quickly than their ability to meet them – above the 23% American average.
More than half (52% worldwide, 53% in the United States) agree that their network connectivity is not ready for new technologies such as AI, with more respondents concerned with network performance limitations than last year.
As if cybersecurity concerns induced by AI were not enough, the current trade wars continue to add additional complexity. A third (34%) of world technology leaders had to reassess their infrastructure due to geopolitical risks, 37% noting the effect of such disruption on their growth strategies – a figure that climbs considerably to 50% in the United States.
“Although the potential of the AI is immense, its successful integration requires meticulous planning. Technological leaders must recognize the need for robust networks and connectivity infrastructure to support large -scale AI, while guaranteeing coherent performance on these networks,” said Ben Elms, CEO Expire.
For the future, cybersecurity is not the only consideration for businesses when it comes to adopting AI tools. The governance of AI, the pace of change and inadequate capacities are among the three largest external obstacles, resistance to employees always affecting companies internally.
