Enterprises Struggle Deploying Agentic AI at Scale

Enterprises are rapidly piloting but largely failing to deploy agentic AI in 2026, industry surveys and a Harvard Business Review report (sponsored by AWS) show, with only 9% fully deployed and 6% fully trusted for core processes. Cybersecurity (31%), data-quality (23%), infrastructure and governance shortfalls drive friction, and Gartner warns over 40% of projects may be canceled by 2027, elevating governance and observability priorities.
