The research part of the project Artificial Intelligence: A New Interlocutor for Croatian Society received approval from the Ethics Committee of the Faculty of Croatian Studies on April 21, thus achieving one of the specific goals of the project. Namely, in the first year, a survey was planned to be conducted among adult citizens of the Republic of Croatia. The aim of the research is to better understand how often and for what purposes citizens use artificial intelligence, what advantages they recognize in it, but also what security, ethical and social consequences concern them the most.

The experiences of using AI in a professional environment are also being investigated, including the perception of its impact on productivity, changes in the labor market and the future of certain professions. In addition, the research covers citizens' views on data privacy, the security of using AI technologies, and the possible social risks and benefits of their increasingly widespread application. The results of the research will contribute to a better understanding of society's relationship with artificial intelligence and can serve as a basis for future scientific research, public policies and the development of the responsible use of AI technologies in Croatia.
