Accenture investing in generative AI technology

Accenture is investing $3 billion in generative AI to improve its capabilities and leverage AI in various ways. The company plans to double its headcount of data and AI experts and aims to use AI to enhance client work, improve its own operations, and transform the way it works for clients.

The company is also focused on responsible AI, establishing a compliance program and working with stakeholders to ensure bias, fairness, privacy, and security are addressed.
