Globalization Partners, the recognized leader in global employment, has released its second annual AI at Work Report, revealing a powerful shift in how organizations are leveraging artificial intelligence. The report highlights near-universal adoption, with 91% of executives actively scaling AI and 74% identifying it as critical to their company’s success.
As the business world transitions into a digital-first era, the strategic use of AI is redefining productivity, decision-making, and human capital management—placing it at the core of enterprise transformation.
AI: From Emerging Tech to Strategic Imperative
AI is no longer experimental. As Nat Natarajan, G-P’s Chief Product and Strategy Officer, puts it:
“AI has become a strategic pillar… Trust in its capabilities has grown, but responsible adoption still requires human oversight and a focus on accuracy.”
Key findings include:
-
74% of executives use AI for 25%+ of their work
-
67% would prioritize AI-powered productivity, even at the cost of headcount
-
46% are willing to change jobs for better AI access or support
This highlights a pivotal workforce trend: AI availability is now a workplace dealbreaker.
HR Takes the Lead on Strategic AI Integration
HR departments are among the most aggressive adopters of AI, recognizing its role in simplifying complexity and ensuring compliance in a global workforce.
Notable trends:
-
82% of HR leaders say AI is essential to their success
-
Top use cases include compliance automation, training, pay and compensation, and internal communications
-
AI agents, like G-P Gia™, are emerging as vital tools to deliver real-time, compliant, and cost-effective HR guidance
“AI is evolving the landscape of HR automation,” said Zachary Chertok of IDC. “HR’s growing use of AI is enabling performance-driven business frameworks.”
Trust and Transparency: The New Frontier for Enterprise AI
While enthusiasm is high, caution persists around using AI for high-stakes decisions:
-
51% of executives won’t trust AI with investment or budgeting decisions
-
Only 3% trust AI to make autonomous decisions
-
Major concerns center on data quality, bias, and output reliability
These findings suggest that the next frontier for AI is not capability—but trust.
