Reports Highlight Rising AI Costs and Adoption Risks for Businesses and Indian IT
Recent reports highlight the growing financial and operational impacts of artificial intelligence (AI) on businesses. One study notes that agentic AI token costs, linked to usage rather than employee count, are becoming a significant budget concern for companies, with potential expenses reaching thousands per engineer annually. Meanwhile, another analysis suggests that falling AI model costs and expanding capabilities could boost AI adoption in Indian IT, though this may also introduce pricing pressures and risks of service cost deflation. Both emphasize evolving AI applications across various business functions.
