How AI is applied to this activity

Microsoft's "Working with AI" study mapped real Bing Copilot conversations to O*NET work activities. The figures below are their measurements for this activity — they describe how AI is used today in one assistant's data, not a forecast that the activity will be automated.

AI completes it successfully 55.6% When Copilot attempts this activity, how often it finishes the task
Scope AI handles 14.6% How much of the activity AI carries within a conversation
Positive user feedback 49.9% Share of interactions users rated positively
How often AI is applied here 64th pct Percentile across all measured activities by how often AI performs them
