Filtered Technologies has conducted a study on how people are using GenAI, finding six main ways it helps in everyday life and work. The data came from tens of thousands of posts on popular online forums like Reddit and Quora, where people share their experiences using generative AI tools.

Here are the key insights:

• Top use case is idea generation/brainstorming.
• Hundreds of millions are already using generative AI weekly, but only around 10% of knowledge workers use it regularly.
• 23% of users employ GenAI for technical support, finding solutions to problems.
• Most use cases (85%) involve collaboration between humans and AI, rather than complete automation.
