Key takeaways
Despite the hype, businesses are still

lagging behind in AI mass adoption
All the impressive

Business users want simple and trusted
achievementsz of deep
solutions with clear ROI; not bleeding edge
technology learning amount to
just curve fitting.
SAP is investing heavily in demystifying
and automating the E2E process: from
data, to insights to business applications
