Time savings from AI could see a\n \n $32 billion\n \n opportunity on the table for the legal and tax industries in the U.S. alone\n \n\n\n\n TORONTO\n \n\n ,\n \n\n June 26, 2025\n \n\n /CNW/ --\n \n Thomson Reuters\n \n (Nasdaq/TSX: TRI), a global content and technology company, today released its 2025 Future of Professionals report, which reveals a significant divide between organizations* that have adopted an AI strategy and those that have not. The report, based on input from 2,275 global professionals across legal, risk, compliance, tax, accounting, audit and global trade, shows that organizations with visible AI strategies are twice as likely as those with more informal or ad hoc adoption approaches to experience revenue growth as a direct or indirect result of AI adoption, and 3.5 times more likely to experience critical AI benefits, compared to those with no significant AI adoption plans at all. However, despite the clear benefits, only 22% state their businesses have a visible, defined AI strategy, meaning many organizations may be missing out on the advantages of strategically integrating AI. Without a coherent plan that aligns AI initiatives with organizational priorities, these businesses risk falling behind in achieving meaningful returns and competitive growth.\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n Globally, survey respondents across industries also predict that professionals using AI will save 5 hours weekly within the next year, up from 4 hours predicted in 2024, unlocking an average of\n \n $19,000\n \n in annual value per person, according to our study's overall findings. In the U.S. alone, this AI-driven efficiency could translate to a\n \n $32B\n \n combined annual impact for the legal & CPA sectors...
