6 notable stats from OpenAI’s analysis of AI’s impact in the workplace
By Katherine Li — December 9, 2025

OpenAI’s first enterprise AI report finds 75% of 9,000 surveyed workers across 100 companies say AI improves the speed and quality of their work, with standout gains in IT, marketing, HR, and engineering. Yet, like Anthropic’s recent claims of big time savings, these findings aren’t peer‑reviewed, and outside research from MIT and Stanford/Harvard raises doubts about measurable ROI and the rise of “workslop.” Bottom line: adoption is soaring, but proof of durable productivity and value remains contested.

PwC’s Joe Atkinson says it’s time to move beyond pilots and scale AI, noting that organizations adopting quickly are seeing roughly three times the revenue per employee versus slower peers. He frames the next phase as organizational, not just technical—where scaling AI unlocks growth and productivity. Anecdotes like Verizon’s 40% sales bump with AI assistance underscore the upside when execution matches ambition.

Google’s experimental Mixboard now uses “Nano Banana Pro” (Gemini 3 Pro Image) to transform idea boards into designed slide decks or read‑only presentations. Users can guide generation with prompts and style presets, though builds can take about 20 minutes and are subject to server‑based limits. Mixboard also adds a selfie camera, broader file support (including PDFs), and markup tools to streamline planning.
Claude beta feature means vibecoding will now only require a Slack message

Anthropic is testing a Slack‑based Claude Code agent that can parse a conversation, turn it into an engineering task, modify code, test its work, and iterate—triggered by a simple “@Claude fix this.” While it could speed up fixes, it also raises governance risks if non‑engineers initiate sweeping changes or stray comments become tasks. With Slack’s massive footprint, access controls and guardrails will matter as much as raw capability.
Hay un nuevo capítulo en la batalla legal entre Europa y Google, uno en el que la IA es la protagonista
By Amparo Babiloni — December 10, 2025

La Comisión Europea ha abierto una investigación antimonopolio sobre el uso de contenido de medios y creadores de YouTube por parte de Google para alimentar sus resúmenes con IA y el entrenamiento de modelos, sin compensación adecuada. Si se confirma abuso de posición dominante, Bruselas podría exigir compensaciones, opciones de exclusión o limitar los resúmenes con IA en la UE. La disputa aborda la pregunta central de la economía de contenidos con IA: quién cobra y quién queda desplazado.
The Wear OS ecosystem shrinks even further as TicWatches vanish from stores and Mobvoi pivots to AI

Mobvoi’s TicWatch lineup is disappearing from retailers and the company site as it pivots toward AI gadgets, promising only “essential” updates for existing watches. The move highlights how non‑Google/Samsung brands struggle to keep pace on Wear OS updates and AI features like Gemini. If TicWatch exits, Wear OS choices consolidate further around a few OEMs.
