Summary
A study cited by LeMagIT shows that between a fifth and a third of French employees under 45 have received no AI training. Half of employees say they have no clear guidance on how to use it in their work. Despite this lack of support, the study finds a degree of optimism among employees about AI, particularly marked among Generation Z. The study also notes that AI appears to reduce professional interactions between colleagues.
