A new IDC study, The Business Opportunity of AI, reveals that 75% of companies worldwide are now using generative Artificial Intelligence (AI), marking a substantial increase from 55% in 2023.

Commissioned by Microsoft, the report highlights the growing integration of AI technologies into business processes across industries.
