A global survey of 9,000 enterprise employees found that 75 percent say AI tools have made them faster or improved the quality of their work. On average, workers reported saving 40 to 60 minutes each day through tasks such as faster troubleshooting in IT teams and accelerated code delivery for engineering groups. Notably, three-quarters of respondents said they are now able to perform tasks they previously could not accomplish without AI.
OpenAI states that ChatGPT’s growth is strong across multiple sectors, with the fastest acceleration in technology, healthcare, and manufacturing. Corporate usage is also rising rapidly in key global markets including Australia, Brazil, and France.
