Industry Calendar
Whenever something new comes over the horizon, people have an instinctive response to it based on their perspective and past experiences. Companies are seeing this play out in real time today, as AI is embedded into more technologies and business processes.
For procurement, the response falls somewhere between renaissance and resistance.
According to Darshan Deshmukh, President at ProcureAbility, about 20-30 percent of procurement professionals are currently in the ‘resistance’ camp. They fear the impact that AI may have on their jobs and the rate at which change is taking place. Between 5-10 percent see AI’s impact as a ‘renaissance’—a welcome opportunity to completely rethink their role and impact.
Everyone else—the vast majority—falls somewhere in between.
In this AOP Live session, Darshan will join us to discuss the various human-centric aspects of AI and how procurement can play an active role in shaping and guiding the rapid changes happening across almost all industries.
