The promise of Artificial Intelligence has led to substantial investments from various companies. A new report, “The GenAI Divide: State of AI in Business 2025,” highlights a concerning reality: a significant percentage of generative AI projects are failing. Companies have invested heavily in AI, anticipating revenue growth, but results have been far from what was expected. Despite the release of updated AI models, the success rate of pilot projects remains notably low.
The study indicates that the failures can be attributed to poor integration, performance issues, and the challenges of adoption. The initial expectations, where AI was thought to revolutionize customer service and content creation, leading to cost reduction and increased productivity, have not fully materialized. The study found that advanced AI systems currently handle a limited percentage of typical office tasks, with much of the work still requiring human intervention.
