80 Percent of Business and Tech Leaders Say Artificial Intelligence Creates Jobs, Increases Productivity

First of its Kind Survey and Research Report Reveals How Organizations Use Big Data and AI to Solve Business Problems, Communicate With Multiple Audiences

CHICAGO — (BUSINESS WIRE) — June 11, 2015Narrative Science, the leader in advanced natural language generation for the enterprise, today announced the 2015 State of Artificial Intelligence & Big Data in the Enterprise Report. The report includes a survey and analysis revealing numerous insights into how all levels of employees, from executive leadership to data scientists to managers, view artificial intelligence (AI) and how they use it in conjunction with Big Data in their organizations.

Many salient findings came to light and several confirmed what true attitudes and beliefs towards AI are. One of the most interesting was that respondents are positive about the impact it will have, with 80 percent reporting that AI-powered technologies creates jobs and improve worker performance and efficiency, while only 15 percent believe that AI eliminates jobs.

“This finding stands in sharp contrast to sensational headlines reporting that AI is a force that could lead to a doomsday scenario,” said Stuart Frankel, Narrative Science co-founder and CEO. “The survey shows that people understand that AI doesn’t harm people or steal jobs, it turns technology into a true partner; empowering employees to be more productive, creative and better at what they do.”

The report also uncovered additional insights as to how organizations are using AI and Big Data together. Key findings include:

The survey’s 200 respondents included CEOs, Chief Innovation Officers, CTOs, data scientists, managers, directors and others. Organizations represented include multiple Fortune 500 companies. The businesses represented spanned across industries, with 40 percent employing more than 5,000 people and 23 percent of those coming from organizations that employ 10,000 or more. No respondents came from the Narrative Science customer base or internal marketing databases.
