Who Owns AI Implementations? The Business, IT?

Digital transformation is a fact of every business today. While the transformation of business has been well documented, it is less clear how technology, and what technologies are going to drive this process. Recently, research from Grant Thorton, the world's fifth largest professional services network of independent accounting and consulting member firms based in the London, UK, has quantified how much digital transformation will cost, how it will impact financially on enterprises and what the ultimate shape of digital enterprises will be. The research, which was published at the end of February, surveyed 304 CFOs and other senior financial leaders, from companies with revenues between $100 million and over $20 billion. Overall, more than three quarters of the executives surveyed agreed that digital transformation is critical, 23 percent in the short-term and 56% in the long-term.
