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 92.5% When Copilot attempts this activity, how often it finishes the task
Scope AI handles 32.1% How much of the activity AI carries within a conversation
Positive user feedback 76.0% Share of interactions users rated positively
How often AI is applied here 47th pct Percentile across all measured activities by how often AI performs them

Source: Microsoft "Working with AI" (working-with-ai). A high completion rate means AI can assist the activity in isolation — it does not mean an occupation that performs it is being automated, since every job blends many activities.
