Elsevier's global survey of 3k researchers on use of AI tools

The most interesting bit in my opinion:

Researchers’ confidence in AI tools is diverging across regions, particularly between China, the US, and the UK. In China, 68% of researchers think AI tools give them more choice versus 29% in the US and 26% in the UK. Further, when it comes to believing AI empowers them, 64% of Chinese researchers agree versus just 25% in the US and 24% in the UK. The gap is also clear in how researchers view AI’s potential:

To save research time: 79% in China vs. 54% in the US, and 57% in the UK

To improve quality of work: 60% in China vs. 22% in the US, and 17% in the UK

To accelerate discovery: 49% in China vs. 30% in the US, and 26% in the UK.
