That is a big change from a year earlier, when expectations were meaningfully lower and many organizations were still deciding whether the technology belonged beyond pilot projects.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>98%\u00a0of product leaders expect gen AI to improve internal workflows within three years, up from\u00a070%\u00a0in March 2024.<\/li>\n<li>95%\u00a0expect better decision-making accuracy, up from\u00a067%;\u00a083%\u00a0expect stronger data security, up from\u00a050%.<\/li>\n<li>Provider preferences are split:\u00a050%\u00a0of tech firms name\u00a0OpenAI\u00a0as the leading provider, while about\u00a030%\u00a0of goods firms name\u00a0Google, and\u00a024%\u00a0of services firms favor\u00a0Microsoft.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Beyond those headline numbers, the report\u2019s most revealing details are about uneven confidence and a market still being sorted.<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019d love to be your preferred source for news.<\/p>\n<p>Please add us to your preferred sources list so our news, data and interviews show up in your feed.
