Growing Up: Navigating Gen AI’s Early Years
Today GBK is excited to announce the release of our latest report, Growing Up: Navigating Gen AI’s Early Years, developed in collaboration with AI at Wharton, a research center at the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania. Based on a survey with 800 senior leaders from top U.S. enterprises (each with sales over $50M), the report reveals just how rapidly Generative AI (Gen AI) adoption and use cases are accelerating.
The comprehensive study charts the evolution of Gen AI—from its infancy and initial experimentation to now intense focus by enterprises on delivering tangible ROI with more practical use cases and applications. As a second wave to our initial report last year, it offers a deeper perspective than most studies: sharing valuable year-over-year insights on adoption and level of investment by company size, industry and functional area, emerging applications, as well as overall sentiment by business leaders on Gen AI.
The Rise of Generative AI Across Enterprises: Insights from GBK’s New Report with Dr. Stefano Puntoni, Director of AI at Wharton
A new study by GBK Collective and AI expert Dr. Stefano Puntoni, Professor of Marketing at The Wharton School and Faculty Co-Director of AI at Wharton, shows that generative AI adoption has reached a tipping point within enterprises. Not only do the majority of enterprise leaders now use generative AI – they are also planning a substantial increase in generative AI investments in the next 12 months.
Conducted with 672 senior leaders from U.S. enterprises, each with annual sales surpassing $50 million, the survey also offers some eye-opening insights on the adoption of generative AI by functional area, emerging applications and use cases by industry, as well as adoption drivers and barriers.

Key Learnings from Sawtooth’s Analytics & Insights Summit
I was fortunate to recently attend Sawtooth's Analytics & Insights (A&I) Summit, where leading analytics professionals discussed new research and shared some of the latest methods and applications of consumer insights and marketing science.
This year’s conference did not disappoint!

As the Vice Dean of Analytics and Chair of the Marketing Department at the Wharton School, it was great to help host the Marketing Science Institute’s Analytics Conference on campus this year.
