Artificial Intelligence (AI) is transforming the P&C commercial lines insurance business.

How do insurers plan to include AI in 2021?

This report provides survey results for six AI technologies: machine learning, computer vision, natural language processing, new user interaction tech, voice tech, and robotic process automation. Charts illustrate 2021 interest levels and adoption maturity ratings for each technology.
