ChatGPT is constantly attracting users and most of them admit to being secretly used during working hours.
ChatGPT is not only artificial intelligence (AI) that makes many of the world’s leading technology companies “fever” to find ways to respond, but also attracts a large number of global interested people. Just 4 months after launch, the tool has more than 100 million users, making it the fastest growing app in history.
A recent survey from Fishbowl shows that the use of this AI is increasingly common in the workplace and nearly half of the respondents confirm using this tool for certain things.
With nearly 11,800 employees in many companies participating in the survey, the result is 5,067 (43%) people use AI tools such as ChatGPT for multi-tasking related to language creation such as writing electronic mail (email), content production… This is up almost 50% from the beginning of January, showing how quickly new technology is spreading. In early 2023 , a survey conducted at famous companies such as Google, Twitter, JP Morgan revealed that only 27% of employees applied OpenAI’s artificial intelligence technology to work.
Despite its high applicability, most employees in enterprises are using ChatGPT for the wrong purpose. The results from the survey show that up to 68% of this AI users admit to secretly using it during working hours and management is not aware.
The fields and industries that are making good use of ChatGPT’s advantages include marketing and advertising. 37% of employees in related professions are using this language model for work. The technology and consulting sectors also do not miss the opportunity that AI can help their operations with 35% and 31% respectively.
But ChatGPT isn’t just for work. Another report from Study.com revealed that 1 in 4 middle school teachers found students using ChatGPT to cheat on school assignments. Teachers are also working to combat the growing abuse of AI in the classroom. Recently, public schools in New York City (USA) have issued an order to use this technology and many schools in other states in the US such as California, Washington, Maryland are also considering a similar move.
