R0007/2026-03-19/C009 — Claim Definition¶
Claim as Received¶
No major enterprise survey (McKinsey n=1,933; BCG n=10,600; Deloitte n=3,235) identified capability-based stratification in AI deployment.
Claim as Clarified¶
No major enterprise survey (McKinsey n=1,933; BCG n=10,600; Deloitte n=3,235) identified capability-based stratification in AI deployment.
BLUF¶
The claim is partially correct but requires significant caveats. The sample sizes are approximately correct (McKinsey ~1,993 not 1,933; BCG 10,600 confirmed; Deloitte 3,235 confirmed). However, the assertion that no survey identified capability-based stratification is an overstatement. McKinsey identifies 'AI high performers' (6% of respondents). BCG finds a three-tier capability model. These surveys do identify capability differences but frame them as organizational maturity, not individual skill stratification.
Scope¶
- Domain: Performance and productivity research
- Timeframe: As specified in claim
- Testability: Verifiable via published literature
