The AI efficiency paradox: What to do when AI boosts productivity but not results

There’s a paradox happening with AI: Usage and productivity are up, but bottom-line results aren’t always as obvious. It’s a familiar pattern you might be seeing in your organization: Leadership invests in AI, and employees say they’re getting more done: more code, more campaigns, more analysis.
