Abstract:
Many companies using Analytical and Generative Artifical Intelligence (AI) are proclaiming productivity gains, but there is still no structured approach how to calculate the real values. This article shows a set of dimensions to classify use cases with regard to savings in time/ cost or rises in quality and suggests a way of calculating results based on the relationship between productivity and profitability. To estimate the costs, a Total-Cost-of-Ownership (TCO) approach for AI systems is introduced, covering the whole system lifecycle. Comparing both structures, estimations of AI benefits can be calculated more efficiently. A set of AI projects from different branches is used to demonstrate the appropriateness of the framework.
