A major new study suggests people’s direct experience with artificial intelligence has little impact on their views about its role in government decision-making—while factual information about the technology can significantly shift public opinion. Professor Yotam Margalit (King’s College London) and Dr. Shir Raviv (Tel Aviv University) tracked the attitudes of more than 1,500 workers in a controlled experiment designed to mimic real-world interactions with AI systems. The work is published in the British Journal of Political Science.
