Double-digit growth
Omdia sees continued double-digit growth ahead, although the cumulative market size for 2019-2025 will be reduced by 22 per cent compared to the pre-COVID forecasts.
Omdia senior analyst, Neil Dunay said, “Economic effects from the COVID-19 pandemic have widened the dichotomy between early AI adopters—the ‘AI haves’—and the trailing followers—the ‘AI have nots. Industries that have pioneered AI deployments and have the largest AI investments are likely to continue to invest in what they view as proven, indispensable technology for cost-cutting, revenue generation, and enhancing customer experience.”
