Though very cool and ahead of its time, this new tool also has its downsides...
A recent survey done amongst Canadians revealed the following things:
- Most Canadians do not trust AI tools, mainly because "they lack emotion/ empathy required to make good decisions."
- Close to half of Canadians revealed they were not at all familiar with AI tools like Chatgpt
- Only 25% of Canadians have used AI tools in the past
- Only about 36% of Canadians revelaed they think AI tools like ChatGPT are good for society
Generally, Canadians seem to be unfamiliar with ChatGPT and other AI tools. Although not against the idea of integrating this tool in society, most people believe it would not benefit them in any particular way.
