Enterprise survey of 573 technical leaders reveals 86% of companies running their own GPUs report utilisation of 50% or less, and 71% of deployed 'agents' are actually single-prompt chatbots rather than true autonomous systems. Enterprises are retrofitting governance and cost controls after deploying AI infrastructure ahead of adequate controls, with roughly 60% planning to switch or add vendors across five control layers in the next 12 months.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of AI Infrastructure and Enterprise Software.

◆ The Wire takeaway

If you're selling GPU utilisation tools, cost visibility, or multi-step agent orchestration, you're watching enterprises burn $billions on hardware they can't see into and agents that aren't agents yet. Call the 60% planning to swap vendors in the next quarter — they're already budgeting for you.
