The demo is over. Making AI work in production begins now

Ninety-five percent of enterprise generative-AI programs have produced no measurable profit and loss impact despite spending US$30 billion to US$40 billion, according to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology's Decentralized Architecture initiative. Additionally, 42% of companies abandoned most of their AI initiatives in 2025, up from 17% in 2024, highlighting that competitive advantage now belongs to companies that can sustain, govern and defend the technology in production.

The Decentralized Architecture initiative by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology MIT found that 95 per cent of enterprise generative-AI programmes have produced no measurable profit and loss impact, despite spending US$30 billion to US$40 billion.
