## Business AI adoption

- Current AI use, previous two weeks: 20.5%. [Source](https://www.census.gov/hfp/btos/downloads/State.xlsx).
- Expected AI use, next six months: 24.8%. [Source](https://www.census.gov/hfp/btos/downloads/State.xlsx).
- Recent current-use average: 21.4%; 6 of six observations available. Calculated arithmetic average, not an official Census aggregate.
- National current-use benchmark: 23.8%. [Source](https://www.census.gov/hfp/btos/downloads/National.xlsx).
- Current estimate standard error: 1.29 percentage points.
- Expected estimate standard error: 2.15 percentage points.

## Reading Ohio’s data

- Ohio’s latest current-use rate is 3.3 percentage points below the national estimate of 23.8%. This is a descriptive comparison of survey estimates.
- State estimates are subject to sampling variation. Different industry mixes and sampling error can affect comparisons.
- Benchmark comparison uses the same reference period: 2026-09-07–2026-09-20.
- State benchmark source: [Census state workbook](https://www.census.gov/hfp/btos/downloads/State.xlsx).
- National benchmark source: [Census national workbook](https://www.census.gov/hfp/btos/downloads/National.xlsx).

## Other Midwest states

- These are the four same-region states with the closest recent averages; this is a descriptive comparison, not a statistical ranking.
- Source for all peer observations: [Census state workbook](https://www.census.gov/hfp/btos/downloads/State.xlsx).
- [Illinois](/illinois.md): recent current-use average 21.5%; 6 of six observations available (calculated).
- [Michigan](/michigan.md): recent current-use average 21.2%; 6 of six observations available (calculated).
- [Missouri](/missouri.md): recent current-use average 21.1%; 6 of six observations available (calculated).
- [Kansas](/kansas.md): recent current-use average 20.7%; 6 of six observations available (calculated).
- Peer averages use available observations from the same six-period window. Coverage may differ.

## Definitions and limitations

- Current-use survey question: In the last two weeks, did this business use Artificial Intelligence (AI) in any of its business functions?
- Expected-use survey question: During the next six months, do you think this business will be using Artificial Intelligence (AI) in any of its business functions?
- Expected use is anticipated use, not an observed future outcome.
- November 2025 revised wording starts this series; earlier wording is excluded.
- Suppressed observations are unavailable, not zero, and are omitted from recent averages.

## Behind the figures

- Recent-average window: 2026-06-29 through 2026-09-20.
- Recent average: arithmetic mean of available current-use estimates in the last six periods; it is not an official Census aggregate.
- Standard errors are published Census values, in percentage points.
- Census estimates are weighted survey measures of employer businesses.
- Calculation input: [Census state workbook](https://www.census.gov/hfp/btos/downloads/State.xlsx).
