Artificial Intelligence, Digital Transformation, Industries, GlobalAbstract
Artificial Intelligence (AI) has emerged as a cornerstone of digital transformation, profoundly reshaping industries by enhancing operational efficiencies and fostering innovation. This study systematically reviews the integration of AI into digital transformation initiatives across multiple sectors, highlighting how AI-driven systems enable automation, predictive analytics, real-time supply chain optimization, and strategic decision-making. Furthermore, the adoption of AI is found to stimulate organizational innovation by reallocating human capital from routine tasks toward knowledge-intensive and creative endeavors. Despite these opportunities, significant challenges persist, including high financial and technical barriers, data infrastructure deficiencies, limited expertise, and organizational resistance to change. Ethical concerns related to transparency, accountability, and bias also pose important considerations for sustainable AI deployment. Through bibliometric and thematic analyses, this review identifies critical success factors, evolving research trends, and strategic implications for businesses navigating AI-driven transformation. The findings underscore the necessity of embedding AI initiatives within broader organizational strategies while fostering an environment of responsible innovation to realize AI’s full potential in an increasingly dynamic and interconnected digital economy.
