Summary
A PwC survey of 50,000 workers worldwide highlights a divide between four groups of employees in their approach to artificial intelligence. It contrasts in particular "front-runners", who fully embrace AI, with "engine room" workers, who are less advanced in their use of it. The introduction gives no further detail on the criteria used for this classification or on the figures for each group.
