COMP NEWS – A new survey highlights a significant correlation between workers who use artificial intelligence for their jobs and workers who are also scared of losing their jobs to artificial intelligence.

There is a direct correlation between using artificial intelligence and concerns about job security. The more workers leverage generative AI in their jobs, the more likely they fear that automation may replace them. According to a December CNBC SurveyMonkey Workforce survey, 60% of employees who use AI regularly reported they worry about its impact on their jobs. Seventy-two percent of respondents who use the technology recognize that automation significantly increases productivity.

Last year, Goldman Sachs published a report that estimates 300 million jobs could be lost or diminished by this fast-growing technology. The investment bank predicts that the growth in AI will mirror the trajectory of past computer and tech products. Just as the world went from giant mainframe computers to modern-day technology, there will be a similar fast-paced growth of AI reshaping the world.

More than three-fourths of surveyed C-suite leaders say that their company’s are actively using generative AI.

Automation is already being deployed heavily in the workforce. Seventy-eight percent of C-suite leaders have reported that their company actively uses generative AI today, according to a survey by UKG, a human resources and workforce technology company.

Seven out of 10 C-suite executives say enhancing their use of AI is a central priority for their business, with 49% revealing that their organizations have benefited the most—with increased financial returns—from AI integrations.
