Would you swap your staff members for AI?

Poll Description

Sponsored by: Kennebunk Savings Bank

As artificial intelligence becomes increasingly integrated into the workplace, it's no surprise that many workers are feeling uneasy — wondering whether their roles might eventually be handed over to machines.

Ultimately, it’s the managers who hold that power — the ones who decide whether a job stays with a human or is passed on to an algorithm.

A global software company, Trio.dev, surveyed 3,000 managers across the U.S. to determine if they would swap staff for AI.

Strikingly, 67% of managers in the Pine Tree State said they would replace staff with AI without hesitation — the highest percentage in the country.
