AI is turbocharging worker productivity but it's also wreaking havoc on their mental health
"AI is increasingly becoming a teammate, and no longer just a background tool. Forward-looking CHROs are redesigning workflows, roles, and even career paths, so that humans and AI agents complement, rather than cannibalize, each other's strengths."
"The majority (88%) of the most productive AI-enabled workers report feelings of burnout due to an increase in workload. As a result, these workers are twice as likely to consider quitting their jobs."
Companies are recognizing productivity boosts from AI, with reports indicating a 40% increase in output from AI-enabled workers. However, the emotional consequences are troubling, as 88% of these workers experience burnout and may consider leaving their jobs. There's also uncertainty surrounding AI's contribution to the company’s success, with 62% of workers unclear on its impact. Interestingly, many employees feel a stronger connection to AI than to their human colleagues, altering the workplace social dynamics. This shift necessitates that companies re-evaluate and redesign workflows to harmonize human and AI collaboration.
