While many companies are still exploring the potential of generative AI, some trailblazers have already woven it into their core operations, achieving impressive results. OpenAI's latest report, "AI in the Enterprise," distills seven universal principles for successful AI adoption in businesses, drawing from in-depth research into industry leaders like Morgan Stanley, Indeed, and Klarna. This isn't just a technological achievement—it's a shift in mindset, collaboration, and business value.

Seven Insights: From Exploration to Scalable Implementation​

1. Start with Rigorous Evaluation (Evals): Prioritize "Control" Before "Growth"​

Adopting AI isn't an overnight process. Before rolling it out widely, establishing a thorough, measurable evaluation system is crucial for success.

Take financial giant Morgan Stanley as an example. With sensitive client operations at stake, they didn't just follow trends blindly. Instead, they developed a multi-dimensional evaluation system focusing on three core areas—accuracy in language translation, quality of information summarization, and comparison with human expert answers. Only when the model was deemed "controllable, safe, and beneficial" did they gradually introduce it to frontline operations.

This cautious approach has paid off: now, 98% of Morgan Stanley's financial advisors use AI daily; the document hit rate in their internal knowledge base has soared from 20% to 80%; and client follow-ups that once took days are now completed in hours.

2. Deeply Embed AI into Product Experience, Rather Than Adding a Chatbot​

The most successful AI applications are those that seamlessly integrate into existing products, enhancing the core user experience. It should feel as natural as water or electricity in daily life.

Indeed, the world's largest job site, exemplifies this approach. Instead of merely adding a job search chatbot, they used GPT-4o mini to automatically generate personalized "recommendation reasons" for each system-matched job. This seemingly small tweak directly addresses job seekers' "why me" questions, significantly improving matching efficiency and user experience. As a result, job seekers' application initiation increased by 20%, and the employer successful hiring rate rose by 13%.

3. Act Early to Enjoy the "Compounding Snowball" of Knowledge and Experience​

AI's value grows through continuous iteration and learning. The earlier you start, the more your organization can benefit from this "compounding" effect.

Swedish fintech company Klarna's AI customer service system is a vivid example of this principle. In just a few months, AI customer service has handled two-thirds of customer chat sessions, effectively taking on the workload of hundreds of human agents. More impressively, the average resolution time for customer issues dropped from 11 minutes to 2 minutes. This initiative is expected to generate $40 million in annual profit growth for the company. Today, 90% of Klarna employees use AI in their daily work, enabling faster innovation and continuous optimization across the organization.
