What 15M Gemini conversations reveal about AI at work, per Google's new study

The post covers Google's new "AI & Economy ATLAS" research based on 15 million Gemini conversations, which pushes back on widespread claims that AI will surpass most humans by 2028 and displace large swaths of knowledge workers.
Caveats noted: it's Google's own data on its own product, not independently audited; it excludes paid/enterprise Gemini API and Google Cloud/Workspace usage where much professional engineering happens; and it measures interaction volume, not productivity outcomes. Still, it offers a useful snapshot of AI at work.
