This chart shows the share of companies that reported cost reductions attributable to AI use across different business functions as of 2024.
Service operations leads in AI-driven cost savings, with 49% of companies reporting reductions - a logical outcome given AI's ability to automate repetitive customer service and support tasks. Supply chain and inventory (43%) and software engineering (41%) follow, reflecting the efficiency gains from AI-assisted logistics optimization and code generation. These figures suggest that AI's cost impact is most pronounced in functions with high transaction volumes and repetitive workflows. While the majority of savings are reportedly under 5%, even marginal gains at scale represent significant value for large organizations, and adoption momentum suggests these figures are likely to increase as AI tooling matures.
