After a journey along the 2023 Gartner Hype Cycle™ for Artificial Intelligence, we’ve reached the final two stages: the Slope of Enlightenment and the Plateau of Productivity. Here, technologies have moved past the initial hype, and organizations are effectively putting them to use.

In this episode, Senior Director Analyst Jim Scheibmeir discusses cloud AI services, many of which are low-code, and their potential to transform industries from manufacturing to finance.  Then, Afraz Jaffri, a Director Analyst who focuses on data and analytics and AI and the editor of this year’s AI Hype Cycle, speaks to Gartner’s expectations for the future of AI technologies.

In the third installment of Behind the Hype, our four-part miniseries about the 2023 Gartner Hype Cycle™ for Artificial Intelligence, we descend into the trough of disillusionment. Contrary to popular belief, technologies that reach this phase of the Hype Cycle are not all ill-advised investments; sometimes, the market is adjusting and finding efficient uses for these technologies.

Afraz Jaffri, a Director Analyst who focuses on data and analytics and AI and the editor of this year’s AI Hype Cycle, joins us to clear up common misconceptions about the trough of disillusionment, a place where we find what we thought was possible is not. Then Senior Director Analyst Jonathan Davenport weighs in on the current and future states of autonomous vehicles, which sit in the trough on the 2023 Gartner Hype Cycle for Artificial Intelligence.

In the second installment of Behind the Hype, our four-part miniseries about the 2023 Gartner Hype Cycle™ for Artificial Intelligence, we climb to the peak of inflated expectations. Here, we discuss the most talked about — and possibly overhyped — technology of the year: generative AI (GenAI).

First, Afraz Jaffri, a Director Analyst who focuses on data and analytics and AI and the editor of this year’s AI Hype Cycle, discusses the tell-tale signs that a technology has reached the peak of hype. Then, Frances Karamouzis, Distinguished VP Analyst and Group Chief of Research for IT Leaders, explains that while some companies are already using GenAI to create value, its true potential as a transformative technology remains unrealized. Finally, Global Chief of Research Chris Howard posits that GenAI may already be past the peak of inflated expectations, the result of which is disillusionment among its early adopters.

In Gartner’s most recent CMO Spend and Strategy Survey, 75% of marketing leaders said they feel pressured to do more with fewer resources. With economic headwinds, the rise of generative AI and a new focus on marginal growth, many CMOs and their teams are taking on increased responsibilities to show their value. But more is not always more when it comes to engaging with customers through digital marketing.

In this opening keynote from the Gartner Marketing Symposium/Xpo™ 2023 conference, Gartner VP Analysts Lizzy Foo Kune and Carlos Guerrero explain how marketers have used productivity and responsibility to shield themselves and their departments from budget scrutiny. However, there is a better system for marketers to show value and deliver growth: catalytic marketing. This new and meaningful way to engage with customers delivers profitable growth without always feeling the need to do more.
