Among the questions that need to be asked in companies are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Is the business strategy still aligned with the business objectives?<\/strong>&nbsp;One of the most important questions since applying AI to untimely business strategies or for meaningless business objectives is to be avoided at all costs.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>How do the benefits of AI align with strategic business objectives?<\/strong>&nbsp;How and where does AI specifically help achieve business objectives?

Planning a medium- and long-term IT strategy ensures that the technologies play their important part in achieving the company&#8217;s goals. In the IT strategy, it is of great importance that the possibilities of AI and the benefits are holistically considered and planned. Other important elements of IT strategy include the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Transparency of the IT landscape:<\/strong>&nbsp;The IT strategy must provide an overview of the company&#8217;s current technological situation. In this way, potential weaknesses can be uncovered and corrected.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Cloud infrastructure:<\/strong>&nbsp;Cloud technology is perfect for AI. With cloud infrastructure, AI can benefit from huge and necessary amounts of data.
