Survey: GenAI Is Making Companies More Data Oriented
Although cultural change generally requires human intervention, it appears that new technology — especially a new technology like generative AI that captures human imaginations — can play a role in catalyzing a data-oriented culture. In an annual survey assessing attitudes about data, analytics, and AI, data and technology leaders in large companies reported significant improvement in their organizations’ data culture. Given that the 2023 survey was fielded just before ChatGPT was announced, generative AI seems the likely cause of the leap in positive responses around culture. To take advantage of this, companies need to invest in experimentation, production deployment, and education.

ChatGPT Helps, and Worries, Business Consultants, Study Finds
The A.I. tool helped most with creative tasks. With more analytical work, however, the technology led to more mistakes.
Studies this year of ChatGPT in legal analysis and white-collar writing chores have found that the bot helps lower-performing people more than it does the most skilled. Dr. Lakhani and his colleagues found the same effect in their study.On a task that required reasoning based on evidence, however, ChatGPT was not helpful at all. In this group, volunteers were asked to advise a corporation that had been invented for the study. They needed to interpret data from spreadsheets and relate it to mock transcripts of interviews with executives.Here, ChatGPT lulled employees into trusting it too much. Unaided humans had the correct answer 85 percent of the time. People who used ChatGPT without training scored just over 70 percent. Those who had been trained did even worse, getting the answer only 60 percent of the time.

We can work on challenges that are easy for machines and hard for humans, rather than hard for machines and easy for humans. The first option offers the opportunity of growing and sharing the economic pie by augmenting the workforce with tools and platforms. The second option risks dividing the economic pie among an ever-smaller number of people by creating automation that displaces ever-more types of workers.
