Workers view agents as ‘important teammates’ – but the prospect of an AI 'boss' is a step too far

AI agents are becoming increasingly common in the workplace, but employees want clear guidelines on how they’re used. New research indicates that while 75% of employees are comfortable working alongside AI agents, only 30% are comfortable being managed by one, with 12% expressing no comfort at all. This sentiment suggests a need for organizations to carefully define the roles of AI agents and ensure transparency in their decision-making processes to foster trust and facilitate successful integration. As businesses across various sectors accelerate the adoption of agentic AI solutions, 82% of organizations surveyed by Workday are expanding their use of these tools. This trend aligns with predictions that by 2028, approximately 1.3 billion AI agents will be operating in the background. Unlike previous AI iterations that functioned as 'copilots' or assistants, these agents can work autonomously on behalf of human workers, highlighting the importance of establishing clear boundaries and understanding employee concerns regarding AI management. Most employees view AI agents as valuable "teammates," but not as full members of the workforce. This perception varies across departments, with finance, hiring, and legal staff showing more caution due to the sensitive nature of their tasks, while IT support and skills development professionals tend to be more trusting. This divergence underscores the necessity for tailored oversight and accountability based on the specific deployment areas of AI agents, as only 24% of respondents are comfortable with agents operating autonomously without human supervision. Trust in AI agents is significantly influenced by exposure and experience. While over a quarter of respondents believe AI agents are overhyped, trust increases dramatically with greater use. Organizations further along in their AI agent exploration report a 95% trust level, compared to 36% for those just beginning. Direct experience builds confidence, suggesting that a gradual and transparent introduction of AI agents can help overcome initial skepticism. Despite reporting higher productivity levels, with 90% of respondents believing AI agents will help them accomplish more, employees also voice concerns about potential downsides. Nearly half (48%) worry that increased productivity will lead to heightened pressure and heavier workloads. Additionally, 36% are concerned about reduced human interaction, and 48% fear a decline in critical thinking skills. Studies from Microsoft and MIT's Media Lab have indicated that frequent users of AI tools may experience diminished independent problem-solving capabilities and lower cognitive engagement, reinforcing the need for a balanced approach to AI integration. Workday emphasizes that adopting agentic AI requires thoughtful design that prioritizes enhancing human capabilities for a more productive and fulfilling work experience.
