• Authors: Long Pham, Barry O'Sullivan, Tai Tan Mai
• Abstract summary: This study examines the key factors that affect European reactions to artificial intelligence (AI) in the context of full and flawed democracies in Europe. It is observed that flawed democracies tend to exhibit higher levels of trust in government entities compared to their counterparts in full democracies. Individuals residing in flawed democracies demonstrate a more positive attitude toward AI when compared to respondents from full democracies.

• Abstract: This study examines the key factors that affect European reactions to artificial intelligence (AI) in the context of both full and flawed democracies in Europe. Analysing a dataset of 4,006 respondents, categorised into full democracies and flawed democracies based on the Democracy Index developed by the Economist Intelligence Unit (EIU), this research identifies crucial factors that shape European attitudes toward AI in these two types of democracies. The analysis reveals noteworthy findings. Firstly, it is observed that flawed democracies tend to exhibit higher levels of trust in government entities compared to their counterparts in full democracies. Additionally, individuals residing in flawed democracies demonstrate a more positive attitude toward AI when compared to respondents from full democracies. However, the study finds no significant difference in AI awareness between the two types of democracies, indicating a similar level of general knowledge about AI technologies among European citizens. Moreover, the study reveals that trust in AI measures, specifically "Trust AI Solution", does not significantly vary between full and flawed democracies. This suggests that despite the differences in democratic quality, both types of democracies have similar levels of confidence in AI solutions.

  The aim of the study is to gain a better understanding of people's views and perceptions within the European context. We design and validate a new questionnaire (PAICE) structured around three dimensions: people's awareness, attitude, and trust. We highlight implicit contradictions and identify trends that may interfere with the creation of an ecosystem of trust.

  We take a closer look at AI fairness and analyze how lack of AI fairness can lead to deepening of biases over time. We discuss how biased models can lead to more negative real-world outcomes for certain groups. If the issues persist, they could be reinforced by interactions with other risks and have severe implications on society in the form of social unrest.

  Numerous parties are calling for the democratisation of AI, but the phrase is used to refer to a variety of goals, the pursuit of which sometimes conflict. This paper identifies four kinds of AI democratisation that are commonly discussed. Main takeaway is that AI democratisation is a multifarious and sometimes conflicting concept.

  Private companies, public sector organizations, and academic groups have outlined ethical values they consider important for responsible AI technologies. While their recommendations converge on a set of central values, little is known about the values a more representative public would find important for the AI technologies they interact with and might be affected by. We conducted a survey examining how individuals perceive and prioritize responsible AI values across three groups.

We show that confidence score can help calibrate people's trust in an AI model, but trust calibration alone is not sufficient to improve AI-assisted decision making.
