Does AI increase productivity at work? New study suggests otherwise
Briefly

Seventy-one percent are burned out and nearly two-thirds (65 percent) report struggling with increasing employer demands. One in three employees say they will likely quit their jobs in the next six months due to burnout or being overworked.
Around half of workers using AI don't know how to reach the expected productivity gains. 77% stated AI tools diminished productivity, adding to workplace challenges.
Management encourages workers to use AI for productivity, but demands for expanded skill sets, more responsibilities, longer hours, and a return to the office are contributing to the burnout and dissatisfaction.
Despite expectations that generative AI will boost productivity, 39% of companies deploying AI tools have seen the opposite effects on productivity, indicating a disconnect between anticipated benefits and actual outcomes.
