Dell cites 66% of enterprises saying their infrastructure is not ready for AI at production scale.
Dell reports that 66 percent of enterprises say their infrastructure is not fully ready for AI at production scale, making an honest infrastructure assessment the necessary first step before scaling.
The post distinguishes between AI ambition, which is now near universal, and secure production scale, which remains rare. It argues the gap is closed with integrated security, data infrastructure and AI expertise applied together rather than as separate initiatives. Dell positions its portfolio and services around that assessment-then-scale sequence.
