BSI's Trust in AI Survey* of 10,000 adults in nine countries found that three-fifths of the world's population wants international guidelines to enable the safe use of AI. Nearly two-fifths (38%) of the world already use AI in their work every day, and more than two-thirds (62%) expect AI to be used in their industries by 2030. The survey reveals that closing the "AI confidence gap" and building trust in the technology is key to advancing the benefits of AI for society and the planet.
