Generative AI Is Already in Your Workplace – Are You Using It?

The Orbital10 Team • 14 July 2025

The future of work isn’t coming — it’s already here. And it’s powered by Generative AI.


You’ve likely heard the term. This isn’t hype or a passing tech trend. Generative AI is a new wave of artificial intelligence that doesn’t just analyse data — it creates. Text, code, images, video, even music. It learns from vast data sets to generate brand-new content in seconds.


It’s the technology behind tools like ChatGPT, Microsoft Copilot, and a growing range of business applications. And here’s the standout stat: 90% of businesses are already using Generative AI in some form.


This isn’t cautious experimentation. It’s widespread adoption — and it’s growing fast.


In fact, recent data shows companies are now spending more on AI than on cybersecurity. That’s a clear indicator of how important this technology has become for competitive advantage.


So why is Generative AI gaining so much ground?


Because it delivers results. Fast.

  • Marketing teams generate first-draft content in seconds
  • Developers write and troubleshoot code more efficiently
  • Customer service teams automate common queries
  • Leaders gain faster, data-informed insights


This isn’t about replacing people. It’s about helping your team do more, with less friction.


What’s even more interesting is how businesses are going beyond plug-and-play tools. Many are now building their own AI-powered applications, trained on internal data to align with specific goals, processes, and customer needs. That kind of customisation unlocks serious operational benefits.


But as with any powerful tool, Generative AI comes with challenges.


Some organisations are still unsure how to integrate it properly. Others are working out what skill sets to look for when hiring. And many are investing in internal AI training programmes — by the end of 2025, 75% of businesses are expected to have one in place.


There are also valid concerns around accuracy, security, and responsible use. Generative AI can produce output that looks right — even when it’s not. That’s why human oversight, clear policies, and the right governance are crucial.


The takeaway?


Whether you’re already experimenting with AI or still on the fence, the message is clear: now is the time to act.


Start small. Learn fast. And work with experts who can guide you on the right path.


At Orbital10, we help organisations make confident, informed decisions about emerging tech like AI — from choosing the right tools to deploying them safely and effectively.

Let’s talk about what Generative AI could mean for your business >
