“In a recent survey, ‘2021 Thriving in an AI World,’ KPMG found that across every industry—manufacturing to technology to retail—the adoption of artificial intelligence (AI) is increasing year over year. Part of the reason is digital transformation is moving faster, which helps companies start to move exponentially faster. But, as Cliff Justice, US leader for enterprise innovation at KPMG posits, ‘Covid-19 has accelerated the pace of digital in many ways, across many types of technologies.’ Justice continues, ‘This is where we are starting to experience such a rapid pace of exponential change that it’s very difficult for most people to understand the progress.’ But understand it they must because ‘artificial intelligence is evolving at a very rapid pace.’”
