"By the numbers: Those who say they're using AI a few times a year or more at work jumped to 45% in the third quarter of the year - more than 20 points from the same time in 2024. Weekly usage rose to 23% from 12% last year. The share of workers who use AI every day is still pretty small - just 10% in the third quarter of the year. Zoom in: Gallup surveyed all kinds of workers. Those in so-called "knowledge jobs" have adopted AI at far higher rates than those in service sectors or more blue-collar sectors."
"50% of tech workers, 33% of those in finance and 30% in professional services used AI in their role at least a few times per week. Those are much higher numbers than in retail (18%), manufacturing (18%) and healthcare (21%). The higher-up you are in the company, the more likely it is you're using AI, per Gallup. Zoom out: Chatbots are the most frequently used AI type - used by more than 60% of AI adopters. The bottom line: More than a quarter-century ago, the introduction of Google search kickstarted Internet adoption at work. Perhaps, ChatGPT's emergence just three years ago will lead to similar uptake - but it's not there yet."
AI use at work increased substantially, with 45% of workers saying they use AI a few times a year or more, up more than 20 percentage points year-over-year. Weekly usage rose to 23% from 12%, while daily users remain at 10%. Adoption is highest in knowledge-intensive fields: 50% of tech workers, 33% in finance and 30% in professional services use AI at least a few times per week. Retail, manufacturing and healthcare show much lower rates. Higher-level employees are more likely to use AI. Chatbots are the most common AI type, used by over 60% of adopters, and comparisons are made to prior internet adoption trends.
