Artificial intelligence (AI) has become a regular part of the workday for many people in the United States. A recent survey shows that 12% of workers use AI tools every day. This is a big jump from just a few years ago. The survey also found that about one-quarter of workers use AI frequently, and nearly half use it at least a few times a year.
AI is especially popular in certain fields. For example, about 60% of technology workers use AI frequently, and 30% use it daily. In finance, workers use AI to quickly go through documents and data. In education, teachers use AI to help with communication and other tasks.
But not everyone is using AI in the same way. Some workers rely on chatbots or virtual assistants, while others use AI to gather information, generate ideas, or learn new things. The way people use AI can vary a lot depending on their job and needs.
There are both good and bad sides to AI in the workplace. On one hand, AI can make some jobs easier and more efficient. On the other hand, it can also make some workers worry about their jobs. However, most workers don't think AI will replace them anytime soon.
Some workers, like a pastor in Florida, don't think AI can replace the human touch in their jobs. Others, like a store associate, use AI to help with tasks but still value the human interaction in their work.
Overall, AI is becoming more common in the workplace, but how it affects jobs and workers is still unclear. It will be interesting to see how this trend continues in the coming years.
