Enterprise AI Agent Rollout Outpaces Data Trust and Readiness
Enterprise adoption of agentic AI is accelerating fast — Siemens deepening its NVIDIA partnership for self-verifying agentic AI in chip design, Manulife expanding its Microsoft AI-governance partnership, and a wave of infrastructure launches (NVIDIA GPU-accelerated data processing, Dell exascale storage, new AI chip generations) — even as a new Google Cloud survey shows the underlying data foundation isn't ready: companies have AI access to only 45% of their data on average, data laggards see access fall to 30% or less, and only about half of organizations trust their AI agents' decisions. Meanwhile, insider selling at enterprise-AI bellwether C3.ai (CEO Thomas Siebel offloading $4.8M in shares) hints at investor caution layered under the adoption hype.
