genioux GK Nugget:
“AI is not about replacing humans, but enhancing business processes and increasing output quality, with an eye on cost savings.” — Fernando Machuca and Copilot, June 26, 2024
genioux Foundational Fact:
The adoption of AI in businesses is driven by the desire to enhance business processes and increase output quality, rather than replacing human labor. As per the Q2 CFO Survey, nearly 60% of companies have already implemented AI and automation technologies, and more than half plan to add more in the next year. Interestingly, over 87% of these implementations were aimed at process enhancement. The economic pressures and the potential for cost savings and increased accuracy through automation are further pushing businesses towards AI. However, determining the exact ROI of AI implementations remains a challenge, requiring careful consideration of various factors.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Megan Poinski: I'm a staff writer at Forbes writing the C-Suite newsletters. Previously, I was a reporter at Industry Dive covering CPG food and beverage and technology in the space. I have also worked as a homepage editor at The Washington Post, and was a reporter at The Virgin Islands Daily News.
Classical Summary:
The article, “How Businesses Can Figure Out The ROI On AI” by Megan Poinski, discusses the increasing interest of CFOs in using AI and automation to perform tasks previously done by humans. According to the Q2 edition of the CFO Survey by the Federal Reserve Banks of Richmond and Atlanta and Duke University’s Fuqua School of Business, nearly 60% of companies have already implemented such technologies, and 53.6% plan to add more in the next year.
However, the goal is not to replace humans. Over 87% of companies that implemented AI in the last 12 months did so to enhance their business processes, a trend expected to continue in the next 12 months. Increasing output quality is another key reason for adopting AI, with 57.7% of companies doing so in the last year and 58.1% planning to in the next year. Less than half aimed to reduce labor costs through AI in the last year, but 54.7% have that goal for the next year.
Daniel Weitz, survey director for the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta, suggests that the current economic situation might be pushing CFOs more toward AI automation. Companies that automated tasks last year experienced faster price growth, and they anticipate slower price growth this year, possibly due to the cost savings from automation and the greater accuracy of machine-based calculations.
The article concludes by acknowledging that while most businesses assume AI will benefit their bottom lines, determining how much and how long that will take can be challenging. The author mentions a conversation with David Obrand, CEO of AI-powered sales engagement platform Salesloft, about factors to consider when making that calculation. However, the details of this conversation are not included in the shared excerpt.
