- Almost three quarters of the CIO say that Macs are now used for the processing of AI in the company
- The survey shows that 96% expect Mac’s investment in the next two years
- Cio cited security, privacy and hardware performance as main reasons for the adoption of Mac
American companies are adopting MACS not only for creative work or applications, but as an infrastructure for AI, has affirmed new research.
The figures of a 300 -CIO Macstadium survey reported that 73% cited the processing of AI as the case of superior use for Apple hardware today.
Almost all respondents said Apple technologies are important for their IT strategies, and 22% called them “critical mission.” Apple now represents an average of almost two thirds (63%) of the business points, and 96% of the CIO said they expect Mac investment to increase in the next 12 to 24 months.
Mac investment to increase
Ken Tacelli, CEO of Macstadium, said the findings confirm what the company has been seeing.
“Apple is no longer only for developers. Macs is feeding AI workloads, executive equipment, creative functions and workflows throughout the company,” he said.
“As organizations accelerate their cloud strategies, Apple’s infrastructure has become an essential component ready for the IT company.”
IA’s workloads are already ahead of traditional tasks such as the development of iOS and Macos to 68%.
The compilation, test and implementation workflows reached 61%, followed by remote 51%desktop functions, and 46%edge computing.
Security and privacy are key controllers for adoption. Hardware security characteristics, insulation and Apple Silicon models attracted companies that implement a cloud -based private AI.
Almost two thirds (60%) of the CIO said that Apple Silicon strongly influenced their decision to expand the use of Mac, while a third (33%) said it influenced them in some way. Only 7% said they had no impact.
The implementation of the cloud was another factor, since the vast majority (97%) of the CIO reported that they used Mac infrastructure in the cloud, and 77% said they used it widely, admitting remote work forces and scale the labor flows enabled for AI.
In general, the results suggest that Macs are changing a niche role in development to a broader role as an infrastructure.
