Survey: AI boosts productivity in 3 out of 4 IT companies

AI is now handling tasks that employees used to do in a clear majority of Danish IT companies. That is the finding of IT-Branchen's survey IT-Barometer 2026, which the industry organisation reported in a press release. The headline figure is that AI boosts productivity in three out of four IT companies.

The material available for this summary contains only the opening of the story. It does not give the survey's exact percentages, the number of companies that took part, which kinds of tasks AI has taken over, or whether the shift has affected staffing levels or hiring. It also gives no comment from IT-Branchen or from any company.

What the source does establish is the direction of the result: in most Danish IT firms, AI is no longer just a tool being tested but is doing work that was previously assigned to people. That points to AI changing how work is divided inside the sector that builds and sells the technology.

For readers following AI adoption in Denmark, the survey is a data point from the industry itself. It suggests that productivity gains from AI are being reported widely, not only by a few early adopters. Anyone who needs the underlying numbers or the details of the methodology will have to consult the full IT-Barometer 2026 or IT-Branchen's press release.
