That’s especially true in North America, which led the global AI market last year, accounting for about 43% of the overall revenue—a number that is estimated to triple by 2024.1 As enterprises gain confidence in AI as a value driver, it will be full speed ahead: The pace of AI transformation is expected to be 16 months faster than digital transformation. In this report, we reveal the secrets behind the early success of “AI Achievers.” These companies have foundational AI capabilities, such as cloud platforms and governance structures, that provide competitive differentiation. AI Achievers also have strong C-suite sponsorship for their AI strategies and support a culture of innovation.And while currently only 7% of organizations in North America are AI Achievers, there are tremendous growth opportunities on the horizon. Already, the AI industry landscape is shifting.In February 2019, the US government launched the American AI Initiative as the nation’s strategy for promoting leadership in artificial intelligence. As part of this initiative, federal agencies attempted to foster public trust in AI-based systems by establishing guidelines for its development and real-life implementation across different industrial sectors. In response, several financial institutions have switched over to monitoring transactions with AI. The US healthcare has also increased its use of AI and is at the forefront of drug discovery, medical diagnostics, bio-engineering designs, precision surgeries, and the use of algorithms to improve diagnoses and treatments. In retail, computer vision that uses cameras to automate inventory management will revolutionize the shopping experience for brands and consumers alike.What’s more, we found that the share of company revenue that was “AI-influenced” more than doubled between 2018 and 2021. That percentage is expected to roughly triple by 2024. And while there is no one-size-fits-all approach, today’s AI Achievers have set the standard for companies willing to advance and invest in their AI maturity.The question now, for enterprises in all sectors, is: How will you use AI to differentiate your business? The answer will either lead companies to build the future or ultimately play by someone else’s rules.The art of AI maturity – North America perspectiveForewordArnab ChakrabortySenior Managing Director, North America Lead, Applied Intelligence 3The art of AI maturity - North AmericaComputer scientist John McCarthy coined the term “artificial intelligence” in 1
