ChatGPT, the bosses’ new favorite employee? This conversational robot, developed by the American startup OpenAI, has been very successful since last November. In question: accessible to everyone for free, ChatGPT can also answer more or less complex questions, produce content, including artistic content, or even code.
An American study looked at their development in the workplace by surveying 1,000 business leaders in the United States in February. First lesson: ChatGPT is already massively implemented in uses. 49% of surveyed companies use ChatGPT and 30% plan to do so in the coming months, according to research from Resume Builder, an online resume builder.
Among the most frequent uses of the chatbot are writing code, creating content, customer service or creating documents for meetings. ChatGPT is also used in the recruitment process, to write job offers and write interview questions.
48% of companies that use ChatGPT have already made layoffs
In fact, almost half of the companies that use ChatGPT say that it has already allowed them to replace employees. This would be just the beginning, according to the study’s predictions. 33% of business leaders believe that ChatGPT will “definitely” lead to layoffs by the end of 2023, and 26% consider this phenomenon “likely”.
And for good reason: 93% of current users say they want to extend their use of ChatGPT even further. “The results of this survey show that employers are looking to simplify certain job responsibilities by using ChatGPT,” says Stacie Haller, Resume Builder’s human resources consultant.
