"He added that the dynamic between older and younger generations was "so impactful" because of its "reciprocity." Younger generations are using their AI skills to "guide" others and "introduce new ways of working," while older generations respond by leveraging their experience and industry knowledge to help Gen Z use the technology more effectively."

"The survey additionally found that most office workers (86%) said that AI has improved their efficiency, while over three-fourths say it has helped their careers. On average, workers saved 55 minutes every day by using AI."
