It also analyzes Gen Z’s perceptions of AI’s importance, benefits, uses, and the challenges in the application. The findings show that Gen Z employees view AI as essential for enhancing work efficiency and productivity, though they face some challenges. Various organizational approaches to AI adoption highlight that AI integration is not just technological, but also cultural. This research offers insights for organizations to create an enabling environment to use AI effectively.
