Marvin OnumonuSeb Vanhecke, chief product officer at Rydoo, pointed out that businesses risk falling behind if they do not support employees with proper artificial intelligence (AI) training.
A survey from KPMG found that most employees (58%) use AI tools at work, but only 17% do so intentionally on a daily basis.
The research also found that 27% of employees never intentionally use AI at work.
Only 47% of those who use AI have received any formal training or education in the field, with 14% of respondents saying they do not understand how to use AI tools at all.
Vanhecke said: “AI adoption is increasing across organisations, but many employees are still using it only occasionally.
“AI is not going away, so it’s vital for senior leadership to ensure that teams are properly trained and supported to use it effectively.
“When applied well, AI can improve efficiency, boost productivity, and help employees work smarter, offering a strong return on investment and a clear competitive advantage.”
Vanhecke added: ‘While much of the concern around AI focuses on generative tools, non-generative AI is already transforming business operations.
“In finance, for example, it is automating time-consuming, routine tasks and allowing CFOs to concentrate on high-value strategic decisions that promote growth and stability.
‘Businesses that fail to embrace AI and encourage its use across their workforce risk falling behind.”
He said: “Those leading the way are not just adopting technology; they are using it as a catalyst for resilience, innovation and long-term success.”
