For every dour AI study, there’s a brighter version.
In recent years, Wharton’s Human-AI Research department has been asking business leaders how generative AI adoption is going. The latest findings: Almost 75% of companies are getting positive ROI from AI projects.
The study also reveals which enterprise AI tools are being used the most, and which ones aren’t used as much.
Take a look at the chart below, created by Business Insider’s amazing graphics team.
I’m surprised Anthropic‘s Claude is so low here. This AI startup is supposed to be crushing it on enterprise AI adoption.
OpenAI‘s ChatGPT is used far more, which also surprised me.
Microsoft’s Copilot is clearly ahead of Google. That’s probably because Copilot is baked into Microsoft’s work software, which is used by many companies. That old Windows monopoly is still paying dividends!

Upstate New York institution is the fifth university under government investigation to bow to White House demands
Cornell University announced a settlement with the Trump administration on Friday, becoming the fifth university under investigation by the US government to do so.
The agreement will see more than $250m in federal research funding restored. In exchange, the university will share admissions data with the government, pay $30m and invest $30m more in research programs benefiting farmers – a reflection of the university’s longstanding record of agricultural research. The university also agreed to continued to “evaluate the campus climate”, particularly for Jewish students and affirmed the Trump administration’s interpretation of civil rights laws, which views diversity initiatives as unlawful race-based discrimination.
