Gartner's survey reveals 57% of CIOs are leading AI strategies in their enterprises, but face four key challenges in delivering value with AI:
1. Uneven business benefits: Productivity gains from GenAI vary by employee, job complexity, and experience level.
2. Spiraling costs: Over 90% of CIOs report cost management limits AI value.
3. Data and AI proliferation: On average, only 35% of AI capabilities are built by IT teams.
4. Employee impact: AI can positively and negatively affect performance and well-being.
To address these challenges, CIOs must manage AI benefits as a portfolio, understand AI costs, implement a 'tech sandwich' approach for governance, and actively manage behavioral outcomes. The pace of AI adoption (steady or accelerated) depends on organizational ambitions and industry dynamics.
