CIOs are under increasing pressure to deliver meaningful returns from generativeAI initiatives, yet spiraling costs and complex governance challenges are undermining their efforts, according to Gartner. However, unlocking the full value of AI remains elusive, with four critical challenges standing in their way.

2024 was undoubtedly “the year of AI,” with businesses across the globe attempting to fast-track implementations. In fact, EY’s 202 4 Work Reimagined Survey found that GenerativeAI (GenAI) adoption skyrocketed from 22% in 2023 to 75% in 2024. The better the data, the stronger the results.
Research firm IDC projects worldwide spending on technology to support AI strategies will reach $337 billion in 2025 — and more than double to $749 billion by 2028.

Almost all leaders surveyed have already invested in GenAI, while more than 80% have established expert or robust GenAI teams. The report discusses security concerns and data privacy issues that must be addressed.
In my previous column in May, when I wrote about generativeAI uses and the cybersecurity risks they could pose , CISOs noted that their organizations hadn’t deployed many (if any) generativeAI-based solutions at scale. What a difference a few months makes. Here’s what I learned.
Almost all leaders surveyed have already invested in GenAI, while more than 80% have established expert or robust GenAI teams. The report discusses security concerns and data privacy issues that must be addressed.
As a business executive who has led ventures in areas such as space technology or data security and helped bridge research and industry, Ive seen first-hand how rapidly deep tech is moving from the lab into the heart of business strategy.

As the GenerativeAI (GenAI) hype continues, we’re seeing an uptick of real-world, enterprise-grade solutions in industries from healthcare and finance, to retail and media.
