Just 25% of Irish people trust AI, survey finds
Edelman’s 2024 Trust Barometer shows a little over half of the Irish population trust business
Only one in four people in Ireland trust artificial intelligence (AI), according to a new report.
The Ireland edition of Edelman’s Trust Barometer for 2024 indicates that while 65 per cent of respondents trust green energy, just 26 per cent trust AI and only a fifth (20 per cent) trust genetically modified foods.
Despite widespread distrust of AI, 71 per cent of respondents said they trusted scientists to provide truthful information around innovation and technology.
