## The details

* The study indicates that surveyed CEOs anticipate AI investments to over double within the next two years. Additionally, 61% of companies confirm that they are using AI agents today and plan to implement them on a large scale.
* 68% of the companies think that an integrated company-wide data architecture is essential for cross-functional collaboration. In this context, 72% see their proprietary data as crucial for unlocking the value of generative AI.
* The study also shows that some companies struggle to build an effective data environment for the AI era. 50% of respondents even admit that recent investments have led to disconnected technology.
* Moreover, the surveyed CEOs state that about one-third of the workforce will need retraining or reskilling in the next three years. In half of the companies (54 %), there are now new AI-related jobs that didn’t exist a year ago.

**Our thoughts**

The working world is rapidly evolving. AI requires quick adaptability while also offering great opportunities. In the future, AI will automate many tasks, so employees have to do other tasks.
