U.S.A., U.S.A! The World Cup's been over for weeks, with Spain emerging victorious in a stunning final, but the Stars and Stripes are winning in another informal competition: AI adoption.
At least new research from the Texas-based Infosys Knowledge Institute says so. (Lest we express an American bias, the think tank also has a location in Bangalore, India). We present this tidbit of news to close out the week.

In another of a seeming litany of studies measuring how AI is penetrating the marketplace and where, this report, out this week, from Infosys points to U.S. enterprises—including American manufacturers—emerging as leaders in the race to adopt the technology, at least against the global average.
Are U.S. organizations farther ahead in embedding AI into day-to-day workflows and business operations? In certain segments perhaps, but in others the tech's decidedly still experimental.
However, according to the Infosys, certain encouraging milestones have been met:
- 74% of U.S. respondents reported saving more than three hours per week using AI tools, compared to 67% globally.
- 43% in the U.S. said they save between three to five hours weekly through AI, versus 38% worldwide.
- The research also shows, however, that 35% in the U.S. see limitations of AI use, compared to 30% globally.
A total of 2,603 were polled worldwide for the Infosys survey: 1,772 junior-level; 545 managerial types; and 286 senior-level employees.
