   Many managers say they trust AI agents more than junior workers

   Description:   
   Many managers believe AI could replace junior workers; many workers believe    
   AI could replace managers.   
      
   FULL STORY   
      
   New SnapLogic data has quantified not only the widespread use of AI in the   
   workplace, but how its perceived by managers.    
      
   Four in five (81%) workers now use AI tools in their roles, and more than    
   half (57%) use AI agents regularly to save time, but workers still have their   
   worries, and its not just about their job security.    
      
   Many are simply worried theyll be perceived as lazy or untrustworthy (43%),   
   with others feeling judged or second-guessed when using AI (24%).   
      
   Workers worry about using AI at work   
      
   Even though workers are clearly worried about how theyll be perceived, most    
   of those surveyed trust AI and their colleagues to do the same job to the    
   same quality. Still, more than half (52%) of the respondents, including    
   senior leaders, believe theyre more likely to be managing AI agents than   
   people in their future careers. Three in five (61%) even think managing    
   agents would be easier than managing humans.    
      
   On the flip side, nearly half (46%) of workers believed they could be managed   
   by an AI agent in the future.    
      
   The survey is proof that  despite evidence that human workers remain integral   
   to work and projections that jobs will only evolve (not be wiped out)   
   employees still have their concerns around job security.    
      
   The future of work isnt about replacing people, but instead using AI as a   
   partner to strengthen whats uniquely human: strategy, insight, and    
   innovation, SnapLogic Director of Project Marketing Dominic Wellington   
   explained.    
      
   In the meantime, an ongoing training gap and talent shortage continues to   
   plague businesses that want to go all-in on AI. Barely one in three (36%)    
   have formal AI training, with more than half (54%) claiming to be self-taught   
   by trial and error.    
      
   This is even more evident among junior workers, with 70% of managers claiming   
   to be very confident compared with 33% of non-managers.    
      
   This is a critical moment for organisations to think carefully about    
   deploying the technology to ensure trust across the workforce and realise the   
   greatest business value, Wellington added.
