Big Tech is increasing employee surveillance and performance metrics in 2026 to enforce productivity amid heavy AI investment and job-market uncertainty.
Rather than being a one-size-fits-all solution, AI will likely deliver distinct benefits to particular industries and jobs. It'll therefore be the responsibility of every individual to figure out how the technology fits within the unique contours and requirements of their particular role. The watchwords of the hour when it comes to the use of AI at work are experimentation and adaptation, not copy and paste.

While some said they use it to polish their communication, others said they find it helpful for improving their public speaking or navigating challenging conversations.
