Nearly 9 in 10 organizations report using AI regularly. Only 37% say AI has made a positive contribution to their EBIT. And only 6% qualify as genuine AI high performers. The rest? Optimizing. Automating. Saving costs. Declaring victory.

"Do not ask what AI can do for your current business. Ask what business you can build because AI now exists."
