Latest update (11-09 15:00): Cisco research finds trust, not technology, now limits enterprise AI adoption

Overview: Cisco released research by independent researcher Brad Howarth, based on data from 25 Australian organizations, arguing that trust now limits enterprise AI scaling more than technology does. The report cites University of Melbourne and KPMG research finding that 36% of Australians trust AI, the lowest of 47 countries surveyed.

It recommends that IT leaders measure how often employees challenge or override AI outputs, rather than counting log-ins as a proxy for trust.
