Key Findings

Data policy may become more restrictive as the amount of data available grows

The more data companies can gather and process, the better will become the algorithms and thus the effectiveness of artificial intelligence in many areas. With every extra data point gathered, however, the consumer becomes more transparent, leading to concerns about companies’ use of their data, and the likelihood of legislation to govern such usage.

COVID-19 forces companies towards AI and robotics

The ongoing pandemic has significantly reduced human-to-human contact and may have a lasting impact on how consumers shop in a post-pandemic era. E-commerce is developing into a dominant force in commerce, forcing companies to use artificial intelligent solutions more widely to meet the demands of consumers.

Effective use of AI requires significant investment, with returns not guaranteed

Industry experts agree that AI is crucial, but implementation can be tricky. The lack of a guaranteed return on investment in the rapidly changing world of artificial intelligence might discourage players from investing in artificial intelligence applications. In-house expertise in the area tends to be limited, requiring companies either to develop such skills internally, or buy in from third parties.

AI will find applications across numerous industries

From food to consumer electronics to retail, and from healthcare to financial services, AI is affecting every industry already, and its impact will increase much further in the coming years. The main reasons to use AI are to improve efficiency, foster innovation and to personalise products.
