Survey finds majority of Czechs not afraid of losing their jobs to AI

The majority of Czechs, 62 percent, are not afraid that artificial intelligence will deprive them of their jobs, while 31 percent are afraid, according to a survey conducted by Median for Czech Radio. There were noticeable differences between respondents based on their educational attainment, with people with a higher level of education less worried about losing their jobs to AI than people with lower levels of education.

Czech society is divided on the question of the risks versus the benefits of artificial intelligence, with 45 percent of respondents believing that the benefits outweigh the risks, while 43 percent think that the opposite is true.

However, less than a quarter of survey participants said that they think they have enough information about AI and are well-versed in the subject.
