MIT's 2025 report reveals that 95% of organizations see zero measurable return from AI investments despite high adoption rates. The research identifies a "GenAI Divide" where only 5% successfully move AI from pilots to production. Key findings show that successful implementations focus on narrow use cases, buy rather than build solutions, embed AI into existing workflows, and keep humans in decision-making roles. Individual productivity gains don't translate to organizational transformation without workflow redesign. The report challenges the "AI will replace engineers" narrative, showing that engineers' roles are evolving toward higher-level design and decision-making rather than disappearing.
