Daily GenAI users gain more

- A PwC‑cited social post shows daily GenAI users report larger productivity gains than infrequent users. (x.com) - The post gives the gap: 92% of daily GenAI users report productivity improvements versus 58% of infrequent users. (x.com) - That divide is increasing pressure on teams to run deliberate upskilling so benefits aren't concentrated among early adopters. (x.com)

Workers who use generative artificial intelligence every day are much more likely to say it made them more productive than people who use it only occasionally. (prnewswire.com) PwC said in a November 12, 2025 release that 92% of daily users reported productivity gains, compared with 58% of infrequent users. The same survey found daily users were also more likely to report better job security, 58% versus 36%, and higher pay, 52% versus 32%. (prnewswire.com) The figures came from PwC’s 2025 Global Workforce Hopes & Fears Survey, which interviewed nearly 50,000 workers across 48 economies and 28 sectors. Only 14% of respondents said they were using generative artificial intelligence daily, up from 12% in 2024, while 54% said they had used artificial intelligence for their role in the prior 12 months. (prnewswire.com) The split is showing up alongside a broader labor-market shift in PwC’s separate 2025 Global AI Jobs Barometer. PwC said industries most exposed to artificial intelligence had three times higher growth in revenue per worker, and productivity growth in those industries has nearly quadrupled since 2022. (pwc.com) PwC also said skills are changing faster where artificial intelligence is spreading fastest. In jobs most exposed to artificial intelligence, the skills employers seek are changing 66% faster than in the least exposed occupations, according to the 2025 barometer. (pwc.com) The survey suggests the gains are not evenly distributed inside companies. PwC said 51% of non-managers felt they had the learning and development support they needed, compared with 66% of managers and 72% of senior executives. (prnewswire.com) PwC’s Pete Brown said the gap will not close through basic training alone and that employers need to redesign work around human-machine collaboration. In the same release, he said the choice is whether generative artificial intelligence becomes an engine of growth and inclusion or a missed opportunity. (prnewswire.com) The numbers do not prove that daily use by itself causes higher output, pay, or job security, because the survey reports worker perceptions rather than audited company performance. But PwC’s two 2025 studies point in the same direction: the workers and industries using these tools more often are reporting larger gains. (prnewswire.com)
