A recent study reported by Philstar Biz reveals that 78% of Filipino workers are using artificial intelligence tools in their jobs, yet only a small fraction receive formal training on how to use them effectively.
The survey highlights a significant gap between AI adoption and institutional support. While many employees are turning to AI for tasks like content generation and data analysis, most are learning on their own without guidance from their employers.
Experts warn that the lack of role-specific training could limit productivity gains and expose companies to risks such as data misuse or over-reliance on unverified outputs. The study underscores the urgent need for companies to invest in structured AI upskilling programs to maximize the technology's benefits.
