India’s use of Generative AI (GenAI) is demonstrated in a research produced by Deloitte titled Generative AI in Asia Pacific: Young Employees Lead as Employers Play Catch-Up. Out of 13 nations, India ranks first in terms of the use and adoption of GenAI, according to a poll conducted among 11,900 people in Asia Pacific. It is astounding to learn that 83% of Indian workers and 93% of students actively use this technology.
India has a good adoption rate of GenAI, which is driven by youthful, tech-savvy workers known as “Generation AI.” These young employees are increasing productivity, learning new skills, managing workloads, and saving time by utilizing GenAI. Employers are facing new opportunities and problems as a result of this shift.
The study estimates that within the following five years, everyday utilization of GenAI would rise by 182%. The belief that GenAI can increase the Asia-Pacific region’s contribution to the global economy is reflected in this growth. Eighty-three percent of Indians think it improves social results, and about seventy-five percent think it has economic benefits.
Important Discoveries:
- Though only 50% of workers and students in Asia Pacific think their bosses are aware of their use, they are driving the GenAI revolution.
- Seventeen percent of Asia Pacific’s working hours, or around 1.1 billion hours a year, could be impacted by GenAI.
- More rapidly than industrialized economies, developing nations are implementing GenAI at a rate of thirty percent.
- Around 6.3 hours are saved weekly by GenAI users in Asia Pacific, while 7.85 hours are saved by Indian users.
- Work-life balance has been enhanced, according to 41% of time-saving GenAI users.
- As per the staff of these businesses, seventy-five percent of them have not adopted GenAI yet.
The AI and data capability leader for Deloitte Asia Pacific, Chris Lewin, stated, “One of the most exciting things about working with GenAI is that it is happening to everything, everywhere, all at once, across the globe.” “Over the past twelve months, we have observed that teams in Italy and Ireland can very immediately relate to the issues that our clients in Indonesia or India are facing.” A crucial insight is that while the swift integration of AI won’t result in the immediate loss of jobs, companies that don’t adjust will bear the consequences. Competing companies that provide AI solutions that have the potential to completely change the nature of modern work will attract their employees, especially fresh talent.
