Meanwhile, public trust in AI is rapidly eroding, with a recent poll of 32,000 global respondents showing that just 53 percent said they trust the tech.

A January survey of CEOs during this year's World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland also found that 25 percent of CEOs were looking to cut headcounts by at least five percent "due to generative AI".
