Maturity Models for the Assessment of Artificial Intelligence in Small and Medium-Sized Enterprises

The digital transformation creates major challenges for companies and fosters disruptive change processes. Artificial intelligence (AI) and its applications play a major part in this context. Therefore, companies need to assess the necessity and advancement of AI applications on a regular basis. This type of AI assessments of applications, services and products can be driven based on maturity models (MM). This article aims to present and assess the status quo of current research on existing AIMM. Simultaneously, this work defines the foundation for further research activities in the field of AIMM and addresses previously neglected perspectives such as facets of privacy or ethical issues.
