A recent survey by analytics platform company Alteryx shows an intriguing snapshot of how organizations use generative AI today.

Among the 300 data leaders from Australia, the U.K., the U.S. and Canada, 31% of organizations said they use generative AI to write code, while 46% also use AI for content generation. In reality, these numbers may even be higher as employees could be downplaying their private use of tools like ChatGPT
