KPMG survey: most workers use AI weekly, many without oversight
KPMG's 2025 American Worker Survey found 87% of U.S. employees use AI at least weekly and 51% daily. A separate KPMG and University of Melbourne study of over 48,000 people across 47 countries found 44% had used AI in ways that violated company policy, and 66% relied on AI output without checking its accuracy.
GoKawiil's interpretation of the reporting above, not reported fact.
The data suggests many companies have informal, unmanaged AI use rather than no AI use at all, which could expose them to data-handling and accuracy risks. The source argues owners should move from debating whether to allow AI to actively managing who uses it, for what, and with what oversight.
- 87% of U.S. workers use AI weekly per KPMG's survey, with 51% daily
