Overview
PwC highlights how AI can unlock Australia’s economic potential, yet many businesses have not fully embraced it. While 90% of Australian CEOs view AI as crucial for future success, less than 25% have started significant AI initiatives. The report stresses the importance of developing AI capabilities to drive growth, improve productivity, and boost global competitiveness.

“The pace of AI adoption varies considerably across industry groups. For example, the penetration rate for generative AI among technology, media, and communications organisations is almost double the penetration reported by health services organisations – 46% compared to 25%.”
