One yuan equals 0.14 U.S. dollars and 0.13 euros (as of January 2025).
Roland Berger assessed the impact of GenAI on industries in a bottom up approach based on its long-term industry cost data, input from over 100 global industry experts, and the analysis of academic research.Â
The research was conducted following these steps:
Analyzed nearly 800 job types across different industries using generative language and image models.
Assessed impact across 11 enterprise operational areas.
Calculated industry impact by analyzing cost proportions in different functions.
Developed language and image model industry impact indices.
 Estimated cost reduction through efficiency improvements.
The conductors also emphasize that the analysis is limited because it is difficult to distinguish between AI's assistive and replacement roles. In addition, the operational costs in each industry are constantly changing.
