Workers Hide AI Gains as Job Security Concerns Limit Sharing

Workers who fear AI-driven time savings could lead to higher targets or job cuts may keep their methods private, limiting what employers learn as they adopt the technology. Thirty-six percent of 6,000 full-time digital workers surveyed in the United States, United Kingdom and Australia said they hide how much AI helps them. The survey ran from December 2025 through January 2026, relied on self-reported responses and drew heavily from technology-intensive roles. In 2024, 52% of AI users were reluctant to acknowledge using AI for their most important tasks.
