Google’s tests in the United Kingdom have shown that AI can significantly enhance productivity and drive the economy. By allowing employees to experiment with AI and undergo just a few hours of training, the adoption rate of AI can double.
Moreover, Google notes that many employees, especially older women from lower income groups, have little prior experience with AI. Some are unsure if using AI is “ethical” or “fair.”
However, once approved and given minimal training, they start using AI more frequently and can save an average of 122 hours per year on document-related tasks.
If businesses implement AI on a broader scale, the United Kingdom could benefit economically up to £400 billion ($533 billion). This study demonstrates that clear policies and AI training can have a significant impact.
TLDR: Google’s tests show that AI can boost productivity and economy. Employees with little AI experience can benefit from training and save time. Implementing AI on a larger scale could lead to significant economic benefits for the UK.
