Indeed survey data paints a stark picture of uneven AI engagement across advanced economies.

The chart below shows a clear frontrunner: Ireland stands out, with roughly seven in ten workers using AI at least monthly for work, followed by Australia, Germany, and North America.

At the other end sits Japan, where fewer than one in five workers report professional AI use — less than half the level seen in the US or UK.

One striking pattern cuts across all countries: personal AI use consistently outpaces professional use.

Even in high-adoption markets, workers are experimenting with AI on their own faster than employers are embedding it into workflows. That gap is narrowest in Ireland, suggesting workplace norms and encouragement matter.

A horizontal bar chart showing the share of workers who use AI at least monthly, with Ireland highest at about 72% personally and 70% professionally, the United States at roughly 52% and 43%, and Japan lowest at about 27% and 18%.
