Are your employees eager adopters of AI tools — or not so much? Their level of enthusiasm may depend on how much time savings they think they're getting by using the tools.
In this survey of Microsoft Copilot users, researchers asked how much time they saved and where they experienced the greatest improvements in their work. The results? Read the article for insight on what to expect on the path to AI adoption.
What is the 11-by-11 tipping point?
The 11-by-11 tipping point refers to the time it takes for users to start building a habit around AI tools like Copilot. Research indicates that saving just 11 minutes a day over a period of 11 weeks leads to noticeable improvements in productivity, work enjoyment, work-life balance, and a reduction in meeting attendance.
How much time can users save with AI?
Users can expect to save an average of 14 minutes a day, with the most efficient users saving up to 30 minutes daily. This translates to nearly five hours a month for the average user and about 10 hours a month for the most efficient users.
How can organizations encourage AI adoption?
Organizations can encourage AI adoption by identifying quick wins that save at least 11 minutes a day and promoting sustained use over 11 weeks. For example, using AI to summarize meetings or draft job descriptions can help employees realize the benefits of AI, making it easier to integrate into their daily routines.
