Lithuanians are less likely to use artificial intelligence (AI) technologies than Latvians and Estonians, according to a Baltic survey commissioned by Ernst & Young Baltic (EY).
According to the survey, 19% of people in Lithuania use ChatGPT, Bard, Claude or other AI solutions, compared to 27% in Latvia and Estonia.
“At least for the time being, we can assume that Lithuanians are quite cautious about AI,” said Linas Dicpetris, head of EY Baltic.
The study shows that the most active users of AI in Lithuania are 18-29 year olds, 40%. Among people in their 30s and 40s, 22% said they used AI, while only 8% did among those over 60.
In Latvia, 58% of people aged 18-29 use AI, compared to between 11% and 38% in the other age groups. In Estonia, the percentages are 56% and 8-34% respectively.
A representative public opinion survey was carried out in October by the research company Norstat for EY. At least 1,000 respondents were interviewed in each country. (LRT/Business World Magazine)
