How much time is AI really saving your workers? Apparently just 16 minutes a
week  as 'time saved generating content is being absorbed by the time 
required to trust it'

Description:
Although AI is savings workers hours per week on actual content generation
time, they're spending most of that saved time fact-checking.

FULL STORY
Workers and execs are only getting 14-16 minutes of net time savings from AI,
report claims
Most saved time is being spent fact-checking and validating output
Most executives say they plan on retraining and upskilling workers

Most execs (89%) and workers (79%) now agree that while AI is improving
productivity , but exactly how much time they're saving is up for debate. 

New research from Foxit suggests the real time gains could be minimal 
compared to the potential, simply because of the amount of time workers are
having to devote to trusting and understanding AI tools . Per the report's
data, execs have only been gaining 16 minutes per week, and workers just 14
minutes, despite AI's bold claims.

AI isn't actually saving you that much time... yet -- On the flip side,
execs were spending four hours and 20 minutes validating outputs, with 
workers spending an equally-significant three hours and 50 minutes checking
generated content. 

Foxit calls this a 'verification burden', where the time saved by creating
content is being offset by fact-checking and making other corrections. 

Even though they're spending more time verifying, 60% of executives say
they're highly confident in AI outputs, but only around one in three workers
are confident. This lack of trust was the second-biggest AI barrier, cited by
34% of workers, with data privacy and security concerns (36%) slightly 
pipping it. Accuracy concerns (25%) were also raised. 

But change could be on the horizon, with nearly three-quarters (72%) of
executives focusing on retraining or upskilling employees to handle AI. Are
you a pro?

"The next phase of document intelligence wont be defined by more AI features,
but by embedding accurate, transparent intelligence directly into workflows,"
Marketing SVP Evan Reiss wrote, "reducing validation time while keeping 
humans firmly in control."
