AI-first AI is a named service with dedicated insight hubs, hot-words (responsible-ai, agentic, data-foundation), AI-powered M&A tech, and TL like 'From AI ambition to enterprise execution', but AI sits alongside tax/audit/strategy rather than being the whole pitch; ai_emphasis 45. | 6Present | Top 74% | Top 81% |
