<p>The integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) into the workplace requires commitment not only from the leadership of managers but, equally important, from the engineers responsible for its implementation. This paper presents a survey on perceptions concerning the utilization of AI tools in engineering environments. It was focused on engineers and students in the areas of electricity, electronics and computing. The questionnaire covered demographic information, Artificial Intelligence knowledge level, preferred tools, primary applications, perceived impact, and attitudes toward labor substitution. With the endorsement of the IEEE Uruguay Section and IEEE Region 9, the survey was distributed via email to a diverse group of potential participants, in more than 20 countries, including all IEEE members in Region 9 .</p>
