Interest in new AI applications reached a fever pitch last year as business leaders began exploring AI pilot programs. This year, they're focused on strategically implementing these programs to create new value and sharpen their competitive advantage.
GTC, NVIDIA's conference on AI and accelerated computing, set for March 18-21 at the San Jose Convention Center, will feature leaders across a broad swath of industries discussing how they're charting the path to AI-driven innovation.
Execs from Bentley Systems, Lowe's, Siemens and Verizon are among those sharing their companies' AI journeys.
Don't miss NVIDIA founder and CEO Jensen Huang's GTC keynote on Monday, March 18, at 1 p.m. PT.
AI Takes Center Stage in Enterprise Technology Priorities Nearly three-quarters of C-suite executives plan to increase their company's tech investments this year, according to a BCG survey of C-suite executives, and 89% rank AI and generative AI among their top three priorities. More than half expect AI to deliver cost savings, primarily through productivity gains, improved customer service and IT efficiencies.
However, challenges to driving value with AI remain, including reskilling workers, prioritizing the right AI use cases and developing a strategy to implement responsible AI.
Join us in person or online to learn how industry leaders are overcoming these challenges to thrive with AI.
