It is more than proven that Artificial Intelligence (IA) has become essential for the success and competitiveness between businesses and organizations. Even so, a new study, carried out by the American company Business Talent Group, shows that 71% of companies encounter difficulties in implementing technology and may be harmed in 2024.
Lack of control over the subject, especially regarding generative AI, could leave many organizations behind in an increasingly competitive market. The “2023 Competency Index” report detected trends in the use of advanced technologies in today’s jobs. The vast majority of companies still encounter internal difficulties in efficiently integrating AI into their non-technical process flows.
Like this, the benefits of ChatGPT and other solutions are still little explored. That's because, periodically, AI gains new implementations. In addition to poor knowledge of tools and applications in general,, The main challenges companies face involve a lack of clarity around AI regulations, poorly prepared senior leadership teams and concerns about data security.
Demanding market
Beyond Artificial Intelligence, the study also pointed out that Data Sciences and machine learning are skills that will continue to be in high demand. The demand for experts in these subjects is 100% higher than in other years. With constant updates in generative AI, This is a trend that is expected to intensify.
The study shows that professionals' lack of knowledge about efficient ways to use AI could affect employers. Building on the advancement of generative AI, the World Economic Forum made a prediction that the technology would move US$ 14 billion in the coming months. But, the current scenario concludes that, without proper adaptation, this estimate will possibly be delayed by the lack of necessary knowledge.
Alternatives to grow with AI
To stay competitive, companies should seek knowledge and training in emerging technologies. American career and leadership experts encourage managers, at first, to raise awareness among your teams about the importance of artificial intelligence.
But, furthermore, There are other measures that can be adopted to reduce the internal gap on the subject. Among the main ones is the training of teams and leaders and the hiring of external consultants specialized in AI. Another possibility is to set up a focus group between departments to debate and explore the issue more effectively..
