Anecdotally in my org (low down biotech), the AI users are quite few.

Of those that use AI, most have finally cleared out their backlogs that were just never ending before AI. That took about 3 years to accomplish.

Now they have the time to do more ambitious projects. And many are doing just that.

I do not see AI taking jobs, I see it more as everyone got a great secretary/junior to offload 'busy' work onto.

Think of even the lower level employees now having access to some of the time saving labor that the old robber barons and fat cats had with legions of secretaries and go-get-em younguns.

Time will tell what becomes of all this, it still very early days, but I mostly see the effects of AI in my current life as like a tool. A great multi-tool, sure, but still just a tool.
