The benefits of using generative AI for work are simply too compelling for people to ignore. Microsoft’s research found that when people can use generative AI at work:

• 90% say it helps them save time


• 85% say it helps them focus on their most important work


• 84% report it helps them be more creative


• 83% say they enjoy their work more

Recent research from Microsoft — covering over 31,000 people across 31 countries — found that 75% of knowledge workers are already using generative AI at work and 78% of them are bringing their own AI to work. On top of that, more than half of the people using generative AI at work are reluctant to admit it.
