Why it matters
Our practical proposal: connect each optimization opportunity to its resource, usage and a verifiable decision. Kirux’s AI category identifies resources such as SageMaker notebooks and accelerated compute; it does not measure the entire return on an AI investment.
Method and limits
A reading of an industry survey. Percentages describe respondents, not all businesses. No customer accounts, client data or NullGhost savings results are published.
