NETendances Survey on Generative AI: More Than One in Two Quebecers Now Use It
According to the latest NETendances survey released today by Laval University’s Academy of Digital Transformation (ATN), one in two internet users in Quebec (52%) has already used a generative artificial intelligence tool. This represents a 19-percentage-point increase over the past year. The survey, titled “Generative Artificial Intelligence,” also reveals an increase in usage: 54% of users report using such tools at least once a week, compared to 38% the previous year.
“This increase in usage reflects a shift from curiosity to everyday use: AI is no longer seen as an abstract technology or one reserved for experts, but as a practical tool that can be used in daily life,” notes Professor Jean-François Lalonde, associate scientific director of the Intelligence and Data Institute at Laval University and a guest expert for the survey.
