THOSE WHO HAVE To what extent do you expect to see analytics having a role SUCCESSFULLY DEPLOYED AI in your organization’s artificial intelligence? SEE A STRONG CONNECTION 16% BETWEEN AI AND ANALYTICS When we asked “To what extent do you expect to see FULL AND CENTRAL ROLE analytics having a role in your organization’s artificial intelligence?”, we expected respondents to indicate a 22% strong connection between the two. Many did, but there was more variation in the responses than we MAJOR ROLE would have guessed – 61 percent indicated that they expect to see analytics having only a “minor” role, “moderate” role, or “no role at all” in their organization’s artificial intelligence. Meanwhile, most AI leaders view the two as being inextricable from one another. Among survey respondents, 79 percent of companies that report having real success in deploying AI-based technologies also say 33% analytics are expected to have at least a “major” role in AI. Only 14 percent of those who have not found real success say the same. MODERATE ROLE Overall, those who have deployed AI are far more likely to say that analytics will play a “full and central role” in their AI plans – nearly half. Those who are merely considering AI, or whose AI capabilities are still under development, don’t see the connection nearly as clearly; roughly a third say analytics will play a “minor” role in AI – or no role at all. 22% MINOR ROLE 6% NO ROLE AT ALL 8
