The state of AI in the enterprise: 10 telling stats

There are other reminders that while AI may not necessarily put all of us out of our jobs, it will definitely change many jobs. Consider this new prediction from Gartner: 80 percent of project management tasks that would typically be handled by a person today will be eliminated by AI by 2030. This will span traditional PM functions such as data collection, tracking, and reporting, Gartner predicts. One irony of the concerns – included the well-placed concerns – about AI replacing work that once required humans: Companies need humans to get their AI initiatives going and ensure their long-term success. Nearly one in three (31 percent) of respondents in a Deloitte survey listed a "lack of AI/cognitive skills" as a top-three concern for deploying AI. That means, of course, the other two-thirds aren't listing a skills shortage as a top concern, which suggests IT leaders are more worried about the long-haul in this regard.
