🤖 Artificial intelligence is becoming one of the key drivers of transformation in the modern economy. According to the KPMG Global Tech Report 2026, businesses are gradually shifting from experimental use of AI to its large-scale implementation in workflows, products, and the creation of economic value.
KPMG’s data is based on a survey of 2,500 technology executives from 27 countries, covering eight economic sectors.
📊 Key trends in digital transformation:
- The era of agentic AI: so-called “agentic AI”–systems capable of independently performing complex, multi-level tasks and deeply integrating into business processes–is coming to the forefront;
- Conditions for success: The success of technology investments today is determined not only by budgets but also by the quality of corporate governance, digital infrastructure, and highly qualified personnel;
- Flexibility over templates: Technological progress is outpacing traditional planning, requiring companies to quickly transition to adaptive strategies;
- The horizon of the future: Alongside the boom in artificial intelligence, quantum technologies and other breakthrough fields are gaining momentum.
The rapid spread of AI and agent-based systems is changing the demands placed on professionals in the labor market. Modern businesses need not just theorists, but experts capable of managing digital infrastructure, analyzing large datasets, and making strategic decisions.
It is precisely this interdisciplinary approach that forms the foundation of the educational programs at the Department of Economic Cybernetics at Sumy State University, where we are training the leaders of the digital economy of the future! 🚀
