Globalization Partners released its 2026 AI at Work Report, revealing a significant shift in executive attitudes towards Artificial Intelligence. While 100% of surveyed executives report AI usage, 73% indicate that some of their AI investments fell short of expectations over the past year. This has led to a 'high-stakes reckoning,' with nearly 70% of executives prepared to scale back AI budgets if goals are not met. The report, based on insights from 2,850 leaders across six global markets, highlights a pivot from experimental adoption to demands for accountability, ethical considerations, and accurate ROI. Ezhilarasan Natarajan of Globalization Partners and Pete A. Tiliakos of Q Advisors commented on the need for strategic focus and measurable business impact from AI.
