Workers are spending over 6 hours a week botsitting AI, fueling job frustration

AI is supposed to save workers time. Instead, some employees report spending hours every week cleaning up after it. A new report from Glean's Work AI Institute, produced with researchers from universities including Notre Dame, Stanford, and UC Berkeley, found that white-collar workers spend an average of 6.4 hours a week "botsitting" AI — feeding it context, checking outputs, debugging mistakes, and cleaning up errors.
