Agentic AI can deliver big benefits, but business leaders must consider how to deal with this complex range of factors.
A recent survey of 1,050 CIOs revealed that 93% of IT leaders will implement AI agents in the next two years, with IT leaders working to implement the technology by focusing on removing data silos.
The average number of apps used by respondents was 897, with 45% reporting using 1,000 applications or more, hindering IT teams’ ability to build a unified experience.
Only 29% of enterprise apps are integrated and share information across the business. To prepare for the expanded use of AI, enterprise CIOs allocate 20% of their budgets to data infrastructure and management, four times more than their spend on AI (5%).
So, what are AI agents? According to ARK Invest, AI agents are poised to accelerate the adoption of digital applications and create an epochal shift in human-computer interaction because they:
- Understand intent through natural language
- Plan using reasoning and appropriate context
- Take action using tools to accomplish the intent
- Improve through iteration and continuous learning
According to ARK, AI will supercharge knowledge work. Through 2030, ARK expects the amount of software deployed per knowledge worker to grow considerably as businesses invest in productivity solutions. Depending on adoption rates, global spend on software could accelerate from an annual rate of 14% over the last 10 years to annual rates of 18% to 48%.
