Infostart reports that in several studies generative AI both raised performance and narrowed differences between workers. Newcomers caught up faster, but there is a catch.
Who is affected and how

- manager
- Because of the levelling effect, AI adoption may change how performance is distributed within a team.
- HR professional
- Performance appraisal and junior development need to be adjusted to the new distribution.
