The AI productivity paradox

This article explores the AI productivity paradox, where managers perceive increased productivity from AI use, but workers do not.

The discrepancy may stem from differing perceptions of productivity, the burden of reviewing AI-generated content, and the unreliability of AI tools. Additionally, the article highlights the potential for AI to shift productivity burdens within organizations and the importance of understanding the capabilities and limitations of AI tools.
