- AI Company Data A survey was released that said most CEOs were concerned about losing their AI jobs. Business leaders are also concerned about moving too slowly, for fear that they will lose their jobs at a faster speed, chief executive of AI-forward.
What do the CEOs really think of artificial intelligence? The question that data CEO CEO Florian Douetteau – is that the company sells AI software to businesses – and his team is enough to order a survey to find out.
One thing became clear from the results: CEOs see AI as a threat to their positions.
In Survey. The survey, conducted by the Harris Poll on behalf of DataIku earlier this year, which -polls 500 CEOs in Europe and US
“Part of the thing we learned from the survey are many CEOs that realize that they need to do things about AI and almost, in some size, afraid to lose their work or their position because of AI, for not doing enough,” Douetteau said on Tuesday at the FateEvent of brainstorm AI in Paris.
For dataiku, knowing how CEOs look at AI can be useful. Clients differently as Morgan Stanley, GE aviation, and perdue farms use its platform to manage data, analytics, and AI projects. Established in 2013 in Paris, the company Latest reported appreciation is $ 3.7 billion.
AI techniques failed
In the survey, 70% of CEOs said they believed that a fellow CEO would disappear by the end of the year due to a failed AI approach or AI-induced crisis, according to the survey.
In the worst case, Douetteau, the business leaders who put a flawed AI initiative “really break something … they created an issue.”
But CEOs also see risks that do not move quickly to AI, he added. While they may be accused of being responsible for technology if they move fast, they are also afraid of being replaced by an next generation, AI-first CEO if they are too slow, he said.
“This is a moment where many organizations will actually change their productivity, where one who goes faster to AI will potentially become a big winner, but where people who are very fast and creator their business can also be first defeated,” he said.
If AI has CEOs on the side, their leadership teams should be careful, too, the survey results suggest. “Half of all CEOs surveyed believe AI can replace 3-4 executive team members for the purpose of strategic planning,” the survey reported. And “89% feel AI can develop a better strategic plan than a member of their executive leadership team.”
Douetteau also noted that a survey result showing 94% of CEOs felt an AI agent “could provide equal or greater advice on business decisions than a member of the human board.”
