According to a recent report published by CoreSite - Artificial Intelligence : Charting the Way Forward for AI : 2022 Survey of IT Leaders and Service Providers on AI Deployment - AI usage is expected to accelerate rapidly .

In fact , researchers found that , over the next five years , a staggering 82 % of respondents expect their company ’ s use of AI to increase . What ’ s more , no respondents anticipated that their company ’ s use of AI or ML would decrease .

Within the report , two of the leading benefits for service providers of using AI - as selected by respondents - were improving customer experience ( CX ) and limiting churn ( 40 %), and driving innovation and revenue for new business ( 37 %). So , how can we expect to see those benefits realised in the context of the data centre industry ?
