Workers More Optimistic About AI, Despite Concerns: New Study Reveals

AI Expected to Boost Company Headcounts, but Challenges Remain

Recent research conducted by Avanade suggests that workers may be growing more optimistic about artificial intelligence (AI) compared to the previous year. The study, which surveyed over 3,000 business and IT leaders, revealed that nearly two-thirds (64%) anticipate AI to either maintain or increase their company’s workforce over the next year, with an estimated average growth rate of 9%.

This positive outlook comes nearly a year after the launch of ChatGPT, a development that sent shockwaves globally and led to concerns among many workers about their job security.
