Vietnam’s AI Adoption Jumps to 26%, but Most Adopters Are Still Experimenting

Vietnam AI adoption hit 26%, but most adopters are still experimenting as skills, ROI measurement, and regulation slow production deployments. The post Vietnam’s AI Adoption Jumps to 26%, but Most Adopters Are Still Experimenting appeared first on TechRepublic .

Vietnam's AI adoption rate has soared to 26%, but the majority of businesses are still in the experimentation phase, according to a recent AWS-commissioned study. While 245,000 companies are using AI, a significant 61% of them remain in the testing stage, indicating that production deployments are lagging behind. The National Technology Innovation Fund is supporting AI projects with up to $114,000 in funding, with applications open until October 10.

Despite the surge in AI adoption, only 23% of businesses have a company-wide AI strategy, and just 13% consistently measure ROI. Moreover, 46% of AI-adopting companies lack reliable methods to track return on investment. Vietnam's AI growth is also being shaped by its AI law, which came into effect in March, classifying AI applications into low, medium, and high risk with increasing regulatory requirements.

The country's talent shortage remains a major challenge, with AWS finding that 54% of businesses cite digital and AI skills shortages as barriers to expansion. To learn more AI tips and tricks, check out The Neuron Academy for free lessons.
