Artificial Intelligence (AI) & Machine Learning (ML). Innovation with regulation
With a projected market size of $2 trillion by 2030. This technology is expected to reduce operational costs by 20% across industries, reaching a market size of $298 billion by 2023. Gartner's forecast reveals that by 2026, over 80% of companies will have utilised Generative AI APIs and models, an increase from less than 5% in early 2023. This will democratise knowledge and skills throughout businesses, making vast sources of information readily available to users. However there are governance and regulatory risks that come with new technology.
Key Takeaways:
- Balancing innovation with governance and regulatory controls
- Training and upskilling of staff to effectively utilise emerging technologies.
