The Ipsos market research survey shows that Poles and Germans are the nations most opposed to the use of artificial intelligence (AI) and face recognition systems by the government to maintain order in the country.  Compared to the global average of 16 percent, in Poland, as much as 23 percent does not support the use of such tools by the authorities in any way. This is the second-highest result for such a response in the world after Germany (24 percent). Hungarians and Turks are similarly opposed to such solutions (22 percent each).
Interestingly, in the total number of 26 countries surveyed, as many as two-thirds of respondents support the idea of using these tools by the authorities to maintain order, but only under certain conditions and with strict regulations.
The Ipsos study was commissioned by the World Economic Forum. In total, over 19,000 people responded to expert questions.
