For example, some people might associate AI with science fiction, like Hollywood’s cybernetic Terminator, while others might think of mundane practical applications such as voice assistants. Nevertheless, our research found that global attitudes towards AI products such as ChatGPT and Ernie Bot correlate with greater trust and/or usage of specific LLM technologies. This suggests that assessing global attitudes towards AI has diagnostic value—it can help forecast AI adoption across different areas of life. Our findings also show that it is meaningful to distinguish between positive and negative attitudes towards AI. For example, participants with positive attitudes did not necessarily report fewer negative attitudes. In fact, some participants expressed enthusiasm about AI’s potential while simultaneously feeling anxious about it. This cognitive dissonance is understandable, given the unpredictable nature of the AI revolution. It is important for government officials to understand people’s attitudes and objective knowledge about AI. Such insights can inform the design of educational programmes and regulations to better prepare citizens for an AI-driven future, ultimately fostering AI wellbeing. What is AI Wellbeing? AI wellbeing can be understood in various ways, but its overarching goal is to foster wellbeing in society where everything—from refrigerators to cars—will be AI-powered. To achieve this, engineers and policy makers must design and implement AI systems in a humane and ethically sound manner.

Even among experts, attitudes and forecasts vary widely: Nobel laureate Geoffrey Hinton has warned about the potential risks of AI, while Yann LeCun, Meta’s chief AI scientist, has expressed a more optimistic view regarding the capabilities of large language models (LLMs). Against this background, it is crucial to recognise that public perception and attitudes towards AI will play a role in shaping the future of AI development and its applications in society. AI is Changing Society Despite the challenges of accurately predicting AI’s trajectory, it is clear that AI is changing society. From the recommendation engines behind social media feeds to the voice assistants on smartphones and advancements in autonomous vehicles, AI is here to stay. Therefore, it is important for governments around the world to understand whether their citizens are prepared for this rapid evolution and possess the necessary skills to leverage AI to enhance their competitiveness. After all, AI does not destroy jobs; it is the way humans choose to use it that does. Assessing Attitudes About AI To better understand what people think and know about AI, researchers have developed various psychometric tools. In our study, Shedding light on relationships between various attitudes towards AI measures and trust in generative AIs ChatGPT/Ernie Bot in a Chinese sample, published in Journal of Psychology and AI, we applied some of these tools to explore global attitudes towards AI, focusing on whether people have positive or negative perceptions of AI. Critics may argue that
