AWS re:Invent 2024
#AWSreInvent
Responsible AI: From Risk Mitigation to Value Creation
What is the value of responsible AI? Accenture and AWS launched our report at re:Invent, based on a global C-suite survey to explore this question. We found that responsible AI is crucial to unlocking business value across multiple dimensions—spanning financial performance, experience, talent, sustainability, inclusion & diversity, risk & regulatory. Most companies have embarked on their responsible AI journeys, but those who go ‘all in’—and move their investment schedule forward—can significantly accelerate their time-to-value.
