According to GlobalData, 2024 will see an exponential rise in AI’s rollout within the corporate world, particularly disrupting customer experience and marketing. 

A 2024 survey conducted by GlobalData reported that 58% of businesses across industries felt that AI was already disrupting their work. A further 13% anticipated that AI would begin to disrupt their business in the next 12 months. 

As generative AI’s outputs continue to become more accurate and realistic, AI chatbots will become more mainstream as businesses across industries seek to improve their customers’ experience. 

However, as AI rollout continues GlobalData predicts that custom, smaller LLMs (large language models) could overtake bigger chatbots. 

Tasks such as customer relationship management are better suited to smaller language models, according to GlobalData’s research. 

In its 2023 executive briefing on AI, GlobalData advises that every business will need to become an AI focused business by 2024.
