74% of AI's economic value is going to just 20% of companies. Everyone else is burning budget on pilots that go absolutely nowhere.
I work with CEOs every week through Konsulere and Vistage, and the pattern PwC just confirmed is the exact same one I see in every single boardroom.
The top 20% aren't spending more on AI. They're spending differently. They're not asking how to save money. They're asking what new revenue AI can unlock. And they're letting AI make decisions autonomously while most companies are still manually approving every chatbot response.
The gap between these two groups isn't closing. It's accelerating.
If you're still stuck in pilot mode, the clock is working against you.
