85% of organizations are using AI in deployed applications

The spread of artificial intelligence (AI) is not slowing down: 85% of organizations said they are evaluating or using AI in production, a report from the technology and business training company O'Reilly found. More than half of companies identified themselves as mature adopters of AI, or as using AI for analysis or in production. O'Reilly's AI Adoption in the Enterprise 2020 report, released on Wednesday, determined that AI growth and popularity is continuing apace. To prepare for this onset of AI use, organizations must make sure they have a solid foundation for the technology to flourish, it found. The 2019 edition of O'Reilly's report indicated that AI was still in the experimental phase.
