Only 1.5% of companies in Romania with more than 10 employees used Artificial Intelligence technologies in 2023, significantly below the European Union average of 8%, according to Eurostat data, as highlighted by economist Cristian Popa, member of the board of directors of the National Bank of Romania (BNR).
"The AI train is leaving. Are we getting on board too? This obvious discrepancy indicates that Romania could miss out on important innovation opportunities. We may be facing the 4th Industrial Revolution. On the other hand, countries like Denmark and the Netherlands are reporting significantly higher adoption rates in implementing modern digital solutions," emphasizes Cristian Popa, cited by Economedia.
