SumanSpeaks Independent Capital Markets & Geopolitical Intelligence · Estd 2006 Technology & Strategy · Global Data AI Isn't Replacing Businesses—It's Redefining Competitive Advantage Two years ago, the AI debate revolved around whether companies should adopt artificial intelligence. That debate is over. Today the question is no longer who uses AI, but who is actually building lasting competitive advantage from it. According to the latest global data, the answer is surprisingly few. Start with the headline gap: 88% of companies now use AI in at least one business function. Just 6% are turning that usage into a measurable, meaningful impact on their bottom line.

New Delhi, Feb 17, 2014: India will look into relaxing gold imports curbs, but won't let its current account deficit (CAD) balloon, Finance Minister P. Chidambaram said on Monday.

"There are pros and cons (on easing gold import curbs), we will weigh them carefully, the goal is to contain the CAD at a level where it can be fully and safely financed," Chidambaram told reporters after presenting the interim budget in parliament earlier.

"The operative word is, we will look into it," he said.

India, desperate to trim a gaping current account deficit, took a slew of measures last year to curb demand for bullion, its second-biggest import after oil.

Due to the restrictions on imports, China has surpassed India as the world's biggest buyer of gold.

Industry participants had expected a cut in import duty from the record 10 percent on gold in the interim budget.
