According to a global study by KPMG, the majority of Swiss workers use artificial intelligence in their professional daily life. This adoption is accompanied by drifts: internal guidelines ignored, lack of verification of the results or even appropriation of content generated by the AI.
While 66% of respondents around the world say they regularly use artificial intelligence, Switzerland is part of this overall average with 65% users. This is revealed by the study “Trust, Attitudes and Use of Artificial Intelligence: A Global Study 2025”, led by KPMG in collaboration with the University of Melbourne. Carried out between November 2024 and January 2025 with 48,000 people in 47 countries, the survey offers a detailed overview of the adoption of AI worldwide and its uses.
An adoption marked in the professional world
In Switzerland, 77% of respondents say they use AI in a professional context, compared to 58% on the world. This strong adoption contrasts with the low supervision of its use. More than half of the users admit to AI in contradiction with the directives of their company, in particular by downloading sensitive data in free public AI tools.
Moderate confidence … but risky behavior
Despite general use, confidence in AI remains moderate. In Switzerland, one in two people say they trust artificial intelligence, a figure equivalent to the global average. The results reveal another paradox in the attitude of Swiss workers: almost three -quarters of respondents admit that they do not check the results generated by AI, while 63 % report having already noted errors in their work related to its use.
According to the study, 69% of respondents admit that they have presented content generated by AI as their own work, a practice that raises concerns, especially in the professional world.
Still insufficient training
These results underline an awareness deficit. Although 57 % of respondents consider themselves capable of effectively using AI, less than one in two respondents say they have undergone training dedicated to artificial intelligence.
