    AI adoption continues to grow (remember last year during the summer when everyone thought adoption was dropping?) Also good discussion of changes in methodology by Simon in the post. Quoted post by @simonw (context, not the main author's work): In updating a graphic showing U.S. company AI adoption over time according to a long-running U.S. Census Bureau survey, I found out that the Bureau's work has been sullied by that asinine "Super Intelligence" executive order https://simonwillison.net/2026/Nov/2/census-bureau-super-intelligence/
