Worth reading👇- highlights a growing gap between those ‘digital adopters’ who are embracing tech and the large number who are falling behind, including investment in skills and capabilities

📑Our new @digitcentre report draws on nationally representative data to provide a robust evidence base about the extent to which AI is being used at work and how.

Our new report suggests that the AI revolution at work is not happening quite yet.

🤖Only 36% of employers are using AI & other new digital tech
🧑‍💻Only 10% of non-adopters plan to invest in the next two years

Excellent new @digitcentre Data Commentary by @FelixIneq @VDanat and Mark Stuart at @CERIC_LUBS on what we know - and what we don’t know - about the use of technology and AI at work, from existing surveys. Where are the gaps in our understanding and what evidence is needed?
