Original: AI delivers bigger financial gains only when companies redesign workflows: McKinsey

Short summary

McKinsey reports that companies achieve significant financial gains from AI only when they redesign workflows around the technology rather than bolting it onto existing processes. Most organizations use AI within current operating models, yielding only incremental improvements. The real breakthrough comes from reinventing execution with hybrid human-AI teams.

  • AI delivers meaningful ROI only when workflows are redesigned, not just augmented
  • Most companies apply AI to existing processes and see only incremental gains
  • Hybrid human-AI teams with reimagined execution achieve substantially better outcomes

Generated with AI, which can make mistakes.

Is this a good recommendation for you?
