The survey covers 3,500 director to C-suite leaders in 25 countries and six industries. Forty percent of companies let AI execute decisions without human approval, at least moderately, and 23% say accountability is unclear after a negative outcome. Reported revenue gains rose from 20% in January to 28%. While 71% track total inference spending, only 44% track per-unit inference cost. Sixty percent have redesigned jobs around AI.
