R0042/2026-04-01/Q001/H3¶
Statement¶
No substantial survey evidence exists documenting enterprise motivations for private AI deployment; the topic is under-researched by major consultancies.
Status¶
Current: Eliminated
Supporting Evidence¶
| Evidence | Summary |
|---|---|
| None | No evidence supports a complete absence of documentation |
Contradicting Evidence¶
| Evidence | Summary |
|---|---|
| SRC01-E01 | Deloitte's survey covers sovereign AI with specific statistics |
| SRC03-E01 | KPMG tracks enterprise AI investment and challenges quarterly |
| SRC05-E01 | Menlo Ventures provides detailed build-vs-buy and adoption data |
Reasoning¶
Multiple major consultancies actively survey enterprise AI deployment patterns and challenges. While none produces a dedicated "private AI motivations" ranked list, the topic is well-covered as a component of broader AI strategy surveys. H3 is clearly eliminated.
Relationship to Other Hypotheses¶
H3 represents the null hypothesis. Its elimination confirms that the evidence base is substantial enough to support meaningful analysis, lending credibility to the H2 finding.
