| Reliability |
48,000+ respondents across 47 countries; academic partnership with University of Melbourne; disclosed methodology; one of the largest AI attitude surveys conducted |
| Relevance |
Directly measures trust, attitudes, and use patterns — precisely what the query asks about |
| Bias flags |
Measurement: self-reported survey data may reflect stated rather than revealed preferences. COI: KPMG has consulting revenue from AI implementation, potentially motivating findings that support AI adoption with governance |
