In Greece 9.81% of businesses uses artificial intelligence tools, versus 14.7% and 12.4% which are the corresponding rates in Sweden and Denmark, which in this respect are at the top of the European Union. According to a report by the Big Data website technology, this lag reflects a lesser mature Greek technological ecosystem, but Greece has almost triple the rate of adoption of artificial intelligence within a year, having recorded an annual increase in order 5.83%.

In terms of technologies most used by Greek companies, it is stated that The text extraction (Text Mining) is at the top. This technology, used by 6.9% of companies, increased a significant increase in 4 percentage points compared to the previous year.

He also notes that these technologies make it possible to increase innovation, improve internal processes and meet specific needs, especially in the areas of customer service, data analysis and content management. However, it is reported that gradual adoption is still impeded by structural challenges, such as lack of technological investment, the lack of specialized talent And the limited awareness of the importance of artificial intelligence in competitiveness.

To cover its lag, Greece should invest more in technological education, digital infrastructure and public and private partnerships, the site notes.

Finally, it is noted that – despite the lag – Greece provides encouraging signs of adoption of artificial intelligence and that in the appropriate framework, Greece could not only cover the difference with advanced European countries in the field, but also use in the field, but also use in the field. In this regard its unused potential to become one of Europe’s emerging players.
