CEOs See Little Productivity Gain as AI Adoption Climbs

An NBER survey highlighted by Fortune finds about 90% of CEOs and other top executives in the US, UK, Germany, and Australia say AI has not boosted productivity or employment, even as roughly 70% of firms are using AI; individual executives report only about 1.5 hours of AI use per week. Other studies show mixed ROI, with MIT-style research noting little revenue growth from AI and concerns about burnout and lower-quality work, even as adoption rose from 61% to 71% between early 2025 and early 2026 and executives forecast small productivity gains (about 1.4%) and a modest output rise (0.8%) with a slight employment decline over three years.

A Health Survey for England shows 24% of adults did not drink alcohol in 2024 (up from 19% in 2022), with women more likely to abstain (26% vs 22% for men) and notable regional variation (West Midlands 27%, London 26%, northeast 17%). Among drinkers, 51% of men and 60% of women are at lower risk, while higher-risk levels are more common in men (27% vs 15% for women); older adults (65–74) are more likely to drink at risky levels (29%) than 25–34-year-olds (14%). The findings underscore ongoing alcohol-related harms and support calls for population-wide measures such as minimum unit pricing and stricter marketing controls.
