Among 45 billionaires polled in February and March, 65% said they utilized AI for personal use, said a survey conducted by U.S. magazine Forbes, which was published Saturday.

Nearly 27% said they used AI virtual assistants, supporting Bill Gates’ 2023 prediction that such tools would become ubiquitous within five years.

“I can’t get through the day without talking to ChatGPT five times,” said billionaire Eric Lefkofsky, Groupon cofounder and current head of healthtech firm Tempus AI.

Regarding his company, he said, “We made a decision a few years ago to reorient our entire company to be ‘generative AI first.”

The move has been a catalyst for the growth of Lefkofsky’s business as it helps patients live longer and healthier lives, he claimed.

Some billionaires are also using robotics in their businesses, including telecom mogul Rob Hale, Indian auto parts billionaire Anurang Jain, French logistics tycoon Eric Hemar, Florida real estate developer David Hoffmann, and Koch Inc. co-CEO Charles Koch.

Many other billionaires who did not respond likely use similar technologies – Jeff Bezos’ Amazon has employed warehouse robots for years, Jensen Huang’s Nvidia supports humanoid robot training, and Brett Adcock of Figure AI earned his billionaire status with five-foot-plus, faceless robots.

Distinct AI applications also surfaced. For example, ousted medtech billionaire Joe Kiani uses AI for “food imaging,” while anonymous respondents reported leveraging AI for deal analysis, drafting investment memos, and summarizing articles.

Despite widespread adoption, not all billionaires embrace AI.

Nine, including finance mogul Stephen Smith, car dealership billionaire Norman Braman, industrial business magnate Harsh Goenka, homebuilder Patrick Neal, and five anonymous respondents, reported no AI use in their businesses.
