The study highlights a disconnect between personal experience with artificial intelligence and public sentiment regarding its governance applications.
Notably, while direct experience has minimal effect, the dissemination of factual information about AI technologies appears to have a substantial impact on shaping opinions.
This suggests that government initiatives aimed at integrating AI into decision-making processes may benefit from educational outreach to inform the public.
