What does research say about: Progressive disclosure prevents AI feature overwhelm?

Introducing AI features progressively (3 per onboarding stage) increases feature adoption by 50% vs showing all features at once, which causes 35% abandonment. (Source: Nielsen Norman Group, 'Progressive Disclosure' UX research, 2023). Without progressive disclosure, users face a wall of AI capabilities and retreat to familiar manual workflows.
