AI Obliterates All Other Top IT Priorities for 2024

By now it is obvious that artificial intelligence has pushed every other information technology buzzword off “top of mind” status. The IDC FutureScape: Worldwide IT Industry 2024 Predictions, for example, were squarely organized around AI, which garnered nine of the top 10 2024 IT predictions.


In fact, the top nine items were AI-related. Satellite internet connectivity was the sole item not related to AI. 


IDC expects the shift in IT spending toward AI will be fast and dramatic, impacting nearly every industry and application. By 2025, Global 2000 (G2000) organizations will allocate over 40 percent of their core IT spend to AI-related initiatives, IDC said.


For the IT industry, AI will replace cloud as the lead motivator of innovation.


As always has been predicted, winners will be those with access to huge amounts of data. 


By 2025, 40 percent  of services engagements will include GenAI-enabled delivery, impacting everything from contract negotiations to IT Ops to risk assessment.
