"Published on Wednesday and based on a survey of over 3,200 business leaders across 24 countries, the study found that 23% of companies are currently using AI agents "at least moderately," but that this figure is projected to jump to 74% in the next two years. In contrast, the portion of companies that report not using them at all, currently 25%, is expected to shrink to just 5%."
"Only around 21% of respondents told Deloitte that their company currently has robust safety and oversight mechanisms in place to prevent possible harms caused by agents. "Given the technology's rapid adoption trajectory, this could be a significant limitation," Deloitte wrote in its report. "As agentic AI scales from pilots to production deployments, establishing robust governance should be essential to capturing value while managing risk.""
AI agent adoption in enterprises is accelerating, with current usage at 23% and projected to reach 74% within two years while non-users fall from 25% to 5%. Agents are described as tools that can perform multistep tasks with little human supervision and are promoted to automate repetitive operations and boost productivity. Only about 21% of companies report having robust safety and oversight mechanisms for agents, and 43% of workers say they have shared sensitive information with AI. Stronger governance, oversight, and safety protocols are recommended to manage risks as agentic AI scales into production.
