Welcome to our 'AI Revolution' series. In this first post, we explore Intercom's $100M AI investment and discuss why this might spark a new trend in software. The goal of the series is to analyse the product pioneers who are embracing AI fully. These companies inspire us, so we aim to share their stories widely. You can read the first post below! 👇 https://lnkd.in/e7vJ8QqX
Craig Watson is presenting at the The AI Furnace 🧨🔥 event tomorrow evening at the Stride.VC offices in London!

Our latest study on the "🤖 The State of AI Adoption at Work" 👇
We conducted a survey (using Arro 🎯) on 100 product professionals to learn about the "🤖 State of AI Adoption at Work". The results really surprised us. It seems like we're still very much in the first innings. Although it might feel like AI is everywhere, this hasn't yet translated into actual usage in the workplace. This means we're a long way from crossing the chasm (eg transitioning from early adopters to a mainstream market). We see this as a double-edged sword. On the one hand, we can expect AI usage to accelerate in the near future as it becomes more pervasive at work. On the other hand, there are a number of existing blockers which could be hindering progress, costing companies $$$ in lost productivity. Here are the main takeaways from the study: 1️⃣ Over half of the respondents (56%) never or infrequently use AI at work. Just 1 in 5 (19%) of respondents claimed to use AI every day at work. 2️⃣ The most common applications of AI at work for product teams included coding assistance, content generation, data processing, and problem-solving. 3️⃣ The average satisfaction rating with existing AI tools was just 3.4/5. The most common reasons for lower ratings include the need for more accuracy, speed, and reliability in the AI tools. 4️⃣ The majority of respondents expected to use AI more frequently this time next year (58%). Only a small minority expected to use it less frequently (2%). 5️⃣ The reasons for not adopting AI in the workplace varied: - Cost (15%) - Security concerns (16%) - Unproven technology (17%) - No fitting use cases (17%) - Steep learning curve (12%) - Other (8%) *None of the above (15%) It's clear that there are a number of hurdles stopping teams from getting the most from AI. It's not just one issue but a combination of inertial forces that are slowing down adoption. 6️⃣ The majority of respondents did not feel that their job was threatened by AI (57%). 1 in 6 did feel threatened (16%) with just over 1 in 4 unsure (27%). This highlights that the threat of AI 'taking over' certain jobs in technology is likely overblown. AI is seen as augmentative, not substitutive. --- For the methodology of this study, we recruited 107 professionals who were currently working full-time in product organisations. We had a completion rate of 84% (90 submissions). The respondents conducted an AI-led survey which mixed open and closed question formats to learn more about their adoption of AI in the workplace. The majority of participants (78%) worked in Product Management, Design, Engineering or User Research roles. Most of these were at the IC (33%) or Manager level (30%) with the rest in more senior positions. Thanks to everyone who participated. We plan on running more in-depth studies in the near future. #artificialintelligence #ai #productresearch #productmanagement #userresearch #marketresearch #product

Are you a Designer, PM, Engineer or Researcher? Fill out this quick AI-led questionnaire to enter a chance to win a rabbit inc. R1 (no magic tricks) 🎩 🐰 🪄 We're launching a "State of AI Adoption in Product" study and kicking off with a quick survey to find out how people are using AI in their current role. We're keen to learn about the most common use cases today, what blockers exist and whether product teams feel excited or threatened by AI. In return for filling out the below survey: 1️⃣ We'll share the full report with you afterwards by email 2️⃣ Enter your name in a draw to win a Rabbit R1 (the AI powered device that recently stole the show at CES) Please just include your name and email on the welcome page of the study and we'll follow up. It should take <5 minutes in total to complete. When the survey is wrapped up, we'll pick one participant from the hat 🎩 and send them the Rabbit 🐰 (bad pun intended) Any reposts or shares to spread the message would be much appreciated. Many thanks in advance for your time! 🙏 https://lnkd.in/eru-TMpB #product #productdevelopment #productresearch #ai #productdiscovery
