The artificial intelligence market (AI) is experiencing rapid growth and transforms several economic sectors, from health to industry, including education, finance and even the arts.
The growing artificial intelligence business!
The artificial intelligence market is estimated at 196 billion dollars and is expected to reach $ 1,812 billion by 2030, with an annual growth of 38.1 %. About 83 % of companies worldwide consider AI as a strategic priority, and 80 % of retail sector managers provide for its adoption by 2025. Companies like Netflix already benefit from AI by generating $ 43 billion per year thanks to personalized recommendations based on this technology.
Artificial intelligence continues to mark major advances, with notable progress expected in 2025, especially in fields such as health. AI, capable of making autonomous decisions and performing tasks without human intervention, should see its use become widespread, according to experts. By the end of 2025, around 25 % of companies having already adopted the AI will deploy intelligent agents, a figure which should double by 2027. The workflows will be profoundly modified, the AI taking charge of administrative tasks while being supervised by humans, thus releasing workers to focus on more strategic and creative missions.
AI, a source of concern
In France, 97 % of young people aged 18-24 know the AI, but only 51 % of the over 75s are aware of it, highlighting a generational fracture. Regarding work, 84 % of professionals believe that AI helps them saving time, and 71 % provide that the majority of employees will use AI. However, 60 % of workers fear losing their jobs because of automation, a concern shared by 51 % of French people, who consider AI both as progress and a danger to humanity.
These figures show that, despite the obvious advantages, AI still raises many concerns concerning its impact on employment and society. The AI arouses employment concerns, with forecasting that up to 16 % of jobs in the United States could be replaced by automated systems by less than 5 years. Despite this, AI should also create new job opportunities, especially in the fields of engineering and AI application development.
AI, strategic priority of companies
Artificial intelligence occupies a central place in the strategic priorities of companies, as indicated by the report “From Potential To Profit: Closing the AI Impact Gap” of the Boston Consulting Group (BCG). In 2025, the AI will remain one of the three main priorities for 75 % of managers, with an increasing investment, especially in the GENAI, whose expenses should increase by 60 % by 2027. However, although investments increase, the actual value from AI is still limited, with only 25 % of leaders estimating concrete results. Leaders companies, which concentrate more than 80 % of their investments on the overhaul of their functions and innovation, obtain a return on investment 2.1 times that of others, which favor small -scale productivity initiatives.
The sectors affected by AI
The artificial intelligence market is expected to reach $ 136.55 billion by 2025, with an annual growth rate of 37.3 % between 2023 and 2030. By 2025, 97 million people could work in AI -related trades, although 85 million jobs are threatened by automation. About 83 % of companies consider AI as a strategic priority.
The AI will also transform several specific sectors: in health, it could generate $ 20.3 billion by 2025, by facilitating diagnosis, data analysis and care management; In finance, AI investments should exceed $ 12 billion, especially for detecting fraud; In retail, it allows the personalization of products, with an AI market reaching $ 5.5 billion; In transport, AI, especially for autonomous vehicles, could generate $ 22.8 billion in 2025; Finally, in cybersecurity, the AI will play a crucial role in the detection of cybermenaces, with a global market reaching $ 38.2 billion by 2026.
At the same time, the robotics sector should experience strong growth thanks to AI, with an industrial robot market generating $ 27 billion by 2025. These figures illustrate the growing importance of AI, transforming not only business processes but also trades and jobs worldwide.
