Many of Europe’s major economies are leaders in the exploration and deployment of AI and are ahead of the global curve. Opportunities for early adopters Those businesses that begin using AI early will find it easier to reap the benefits. The most desirable effect, or at least the one that directly affects most businesses, is a revenue increase as it underpins the whole of their business model. The most important benefit of AI usage in enterprises is in supply chain management and human resources. Major improvements to supply chains provide a major boost to revenue by using AI to map out idiosyncrasies and problematic stops. When it comes to human resources, the use of AI can drastically reduce time in hiring cycles by enabling AI-driven algorithms to select those candidates whose resume most aligns with the job requirements.

Western countries, in particular European mainland nations such as France, Germany, and Italy, had the highest rate of non-usage or no exploration of AI, though even the U.S. had a similar share of enterprises not engaged with AI. This may reflect the specialized industries that thrive in those countries, needing individualized human skills to operate.

Those working in retail and consumer goods industry were the largest group of those who had no exposure to generative AI tools. In general, those in technology, media, and telecom were far likelier to have used generative AI tools at work or outside of work regularly. This is perhaps unsurprising as these fields are the most likely to involve the use of generative AI in business practices. Generative AI employment change The effects of generative AI on employee numbers globally will be a serious consideration in the coming years. In 2023 most companies expected generative AI to decrease the number of employees in their business with the sole exception of product development and risk analysis., which was expected to change little. This is likely due to the fact that both require creativity and case-by-case analysis, something AI is still relatively bad in handling. Europe leads what? Globally users in North America use generative AI the most used generative AI regularly for work and outside of work. However, it was Europe that led in those using generative AI specifically in the workplace, being the only region with ************ response. Unsurprisingly, users in developing markets were the least likely to have been exposed to generative AI at all.
