Strategies for success:  How AI can re-start growth and business profitability

The steady decline in business profitability across multiple industries threatens to erode future investment, innovation and shareholder value.  But help is at hand from a new factor of production—artificial intelligence – which promises a second age of business growth and profitability.  New research from Accenture shows that, by 2035, AI has the potential to boost profitability by an average 38% and generate an economic boost of $14 trillion for the world economy.  This will only happen if organisations adopt a ‘people first’ mind-set and take bold but responsible steps to apply AI technologies to their business.
