management” Average of 12 countries Agree (strongly agree somewhat agree) 91% I don’t think so (not much not at all) 9% Japan Agree (strongly agree somewhat agree) 80% I don’t think so (not much not at all) 20% 80% of Japanese PMs said they “understand the limitations” of AI, such as errors and biased output. However, 20% of respondents said they did not understand the limits, which is significantly higher than the 12-country average of 9%. Additionally, 85% of Japanese respondents said they were confident that AI implementation would be successful, which is by no means a low percentage, but it is the lowest country in this survey. Japanese PMs are positive about AI technology, but there seems to be room for improvement in terms of recognizing its limitations and having confidence in introducing it. 3. The number one disadvantage of introducing AI in project management is “concerns about AI’s limits and bias” Next, we will look at the disadvantages of introducing AI in project management as perceived by project managers.

Disadvantages of introducing AI in project management Q. “What is the biggest disadvantage of AI in project management?” Note: Questions were asked among those surveyed who answered that they use AI-enabled tools in their project management work. Due to multiple answers, the total does not add up to 100%. “Other” was excluded as it was less than 1%. Concerns about AI limitations and bias (51%) Misplaced confidence in AI accuracy (43%) Stakeholders fear or skepticism about AI (42%) Lack of accountability for AI output (40%) Poor quality of output/results (30%) A common challenge when using generative AI, not just in the project management field, is the accuracy and quality of data. Looking at the answers that were most frequently raised in this question, it became clear that there are not only disadvantages associated with AI’s technical performance, but also many
psychological factors and cognitive issues. [Summary] In this article, we surveyed project managers in 12 countries around the world and summarized the effects of introducing AI in project management. While it has become clear that AI has greatly contributed to improving productivity and efficiency in project management, it has also been found that concerns about bias and lack of understanding of AI technology are issues, especially in Japan. Ta. In order to resolve these issues, it is important for companies to provide appropriate in-house training and establish policies. ♦︎Capterra “Survey on the effectiveness of project management tools in 2024”: Project management will change with the introduction of AI! 63% of PMs experience increased efficiency and productivity
