A growing number of business leaders say their fear their companies will not survive the next 10 years because of pressure from climate change and new technology.
越来越多的商界领袖表示，由于气候变化和新技术的压力，他们担心自己的公司在未来10年无法生存。
That information comes from a new opinion by the consulting company PwC.
这一信息来自咨询公司普华永道的一项新意见。
PwC questioned over 4,700 chief executive officers, or CEOs, from 105 countries and territories.
普华永道对来自105个国家和地区的4700多名首席执行官进行了调查。
It released the survey results on January 15.

That is up from 18 percent last year, when the world was dealing with high inflation, rising interest rates and more.

Even with more positive opinions on the economy, the CEOs say they are increasingly worried about their companies' ability to deal with major future changes.
尽管首席执行官们对经济持更积极的态度，但他们表示，他们越来越担心自己的公司是否有能力应对未来的重大变化。
The survey found 45 percent of the CEOs had concerns that their businesses would not survive the next 10 years.

The business leaders say they are trying to make changes, but they must deal with difficult government rules, a lack of skills among workers and more.

Artificial intelligence, the survey found, is seen as a way to make business operations faster.

But AI is also seen as a weakness.

Nearly 75 percent of the CEOs said AI "will significantly change the way their company creates, delivers and captures value in the next three years," PwC said.

But 69 percent noted that their workers needed training to gain skills to use the developing technology.

The CEOs also said they were concerned about how AI would increase online security risks and misinformation.

Organizers of the Davos meeting warned last week that the threat created by AI-powered misinformation is the world's greatest short-term threat.
达沃斯会议的组织者上周警告说，人工智能驱动的错误信息造成的威胁是世界上最大的短期威胁。
The PwC survey shows that climate change is both an opportunity and a risk.

Nearly 33 percent of the CEOs said climate change is expected to change how they do things over the next three years.

More than 75 percent of the executives said they have begun or completed changes to increase energy efficiency.
