A Gartner survey of 2,500 executive leaders has found that almost half (45%) say the publicity of ChatGPT has prompted them to increase artificial intelligence (AI) investments. The survey reported that 70% of executives said their organisations are investigating the use of AI, while 19% are in pilot or have deployed AI in production.
The poll found that 68% of executives believe the benefits of generative AI outweigh the risks, compared with just 5% that feel the risks outweigh the benefits. However, executives may begin to shift their perspective as investments deepen.
