Ipsos New Zealand has released the findings of a new 31-country AI Monitor. This study of more than 24,000 people across 31 markets reveals a complex and often contradictory relationship between humans and artificial intelligence (AI). New Zealanders remain one of the populations most nervous about products and services using AI in the world, despite our understanding of the technology growing year-on-year.
New Zealanders are more nervous than the global average about the impact of AI on products and services. A new 31-country Ipsos Global Advisor survey found that 63% New Zealanders say that products and services that use AI make them nervous (compared with 52% global country average).
Following a very challenging couple of years in 2020 and 2021, many people around the world feel 2022 has been a little better. However, uncertainty about both short- and longer-term futures prevails. Global citizens are struggling to be optimistic about 2023 as most express concern about the state of the economy, the environment and world security.
