New insights from Google’s AI & Economy ATLAS
Joint research with MIT FutureTech shows surveyed scientists save nearly seven hours weekly using AI, but face downstream bottlenecks in physical experimentation and clinical validation.
- A study of over 600 US and UK scientists and 2,600 specialized models found nearly half use AI daily.
- Computer and mathematical occupations represent 30% of US work-related AI usage, double the rate in the rest of the world.
- In India, arts, design, and media jobs account for 19% of work-related AI usage, 1.6 times the global average.
- Manual task usage for equipment diagnostics reached 7% of work AI use in Brazil and Germany, compared to 4% in Japan.
Researchers and economists gain open access to granular global benchmarking data tracking how occupations adopt and integrate AI.
