A recent survey reveals that nearly 75% of the UK public supports laws to regulate artificial intelligence (AI), indicating a growing unease about the technology's implications. Conducted by the Ada Lovelace and Alan Turing Institutes, the survey highlights that 72% of respondents believe regulations would enhance their comfort with AI. Additionally, 90% of participants feel that the government should have the authority to halt AI products that pose serious risks to public safety.
The survey also uncovers widespread experiences of AI-related harms, with significant concerns about misinformation, financial fraud, and deepfakes. Many respondents advocate for transparency and the right to appeal AI-based decisions, emphasizing the need for public engagement in AI governance. The findings underscore a critical gap between public expectations and current regulatory frameworks, suggesting that without addressing these concerns, public trust in AI could diminish.
