Artificial intelligence (AI) chatbot ChatGPT recorded total traffic of 14.6 billion visits over the past year, according to a study conducted by writerbuddy.ai<\/a>. Averaging 1.5 billion visits every month, this platform witnessed a positive net traffic growth of 1.8 billion, translating to an average monthly growth of 195.1 million visits. Other rising stars such as Character AI, Google Bard, and Perplexity AI collectively accounted for 18.69 percent of the chatbot market\u2019s monthly visits.<\/p>\n

With those kinds of numbers, you don\u2019t need a crystal ball to predict AI\u2019s influence on the workplace\u2014and learning and development (L&D)\u2014will only continue to grow in 2024, as noted by just about all the experts cited in our 2024 L&D and HR Forecast.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn 2024, AI\u2019s role in workforce training will evolve into a more dynamic, interactive partner in the learning process,\u201d believes Dr. Sam Zheng,<\/a> CEO and co-founder, DeepHow. \u201cGone are the days of passive data crunching. AI is set to revolutionize how knowledge is captured and shared, turning raw data into customized, interactive learning experiences. This will not only enhance learning outcomes but also revolutionize how industries approach training and knowledge retention.\u201d<\/p>\n

AI and L&D<\/h2>\n

More than 1 in 5 (21 percent) of 500 L&D professionals said generative AI (which responds to input and variously produces text, images, video, audio, etc.) is a priority for the next 12 months\u2014a massive leap from a likely near-zero percentage a little more than year ago, according to a survey conducted by the Institute for Corporate Productivity (i4cp) and Training <\/em>magazine on the learning and development technology landscape. The survey found respondents increasingly are moving from using AI for learning content recommendations to leveraging AI tools to help create, improve, or draft a wide range of learning-related content.<\/p>\n

Tom Stone, a senior research analyst at i4cp, notes that three of the AI use cases in the tech study were deemed next practices<\/em>\u2014those highly correlated with market performance, but that few organizations are implementing yet:<\/p>\n
