The Challenges of Artificial Intelligence Adoption by Business Organizations

Abstract

: Globally, there is a growing quest for the adoption of artificial intelligence (ai) by organizations. This study intends to investigate the benefits derivable from its adoption, as well as the possible challenges that organizations need to contend with while trying to adopt the technology. The methodology adopted by the author is the use of questionnaires which is administered on a total of sixty-four (64) workers drawn from organizations that have partially adopted the AI technology. The findings show the profound benefits to include job efficiency and massive production of goods and services. On the other hand, the challenges are seen to be mainly the high cost involved in the adoption; the workers’ perception of AI technology implementation, and the reality that there are not enough AI skilled workers.
