Asia-Pacific firms invest heavily in AI despite poor returns, survey finds
A survey by International Data Corporation, commissioned by Expereo, reveals that 37% of organizations in the Asia-Pacific region are investing aggressively in AI with little assessment of outcomes, nearly double the global average of 20%. The study covered 800 technology leaders from multinational enterprises with over 500 employees across the US, Europe, and Asia-Pacific. Ben Elms, CEO of Expereo, noted a gap between AI ambition and outcomes. Businesses race to adopt AI despite challenges in proving ROI and infrastructure scalability.
