Without water, the average person would die after about five days. Without energy, as we know it, our society would collapse. But what about a world without AI? According to the British business leaders, the consequences would be equally catastrophic.
A new report by the London-based software company Endava, who interviews 500 entrepreneurs, showed that two thirds of the AI surveyed classified as socially important on water and electricity.
A whopping 93% of the respondents want the industry and government to implement Ki as soon as possible. In the meantime, 84% of AI use AI as a “companion” or conversation partner at least once a month, while two thirds of the AI trust to make fully automated decisions about their lives.
However, almost all respondents (96%) believe that the global AI adoption monitors an independent international institution and 94% want this body to be managed by the government. At the same time, more than half (55%) warn that existing restrictions on the infrastructure could hold back the full potential of AI.
The CTO of Endava, Matt Cloke, described the results as “fascinating” and noticed the tension between trust in the AI and the desire for guardrails.

“Many not only use AI regularly, but also rely on it to support both business -critical and deeply personal decisions,” he said. “But people want to see the right framework before the AI is completely embedded in society.”
The results come in the middle of an increase in KI investment – and an extension Hypblase – How the technology penetrates practically every corner of our life. AI is increasingly regarded as a critical infrastructure.
2018 – Four years before the start of Chatgpt, the Genai boom triggered – Google CEO Sundar Pichai predicted that artificial intelligence would have a deeper influence on the world as “electricity or fire”. Last year Nvidia boss Jensen called Huang Ai “The most important technology of our time. “
Nevertheless, some technology leaders are not so optimistic. Geoffrey Hinton, recently referred to as the “godfather of AI” warned That there was an opportunity of 10 to 20% that AI would wipe out humanity over the next 30 years. Stephen Hawking, two years before his death, said that artificially intelligent machines “would be either the best or the worst to happen to humanity”. Even Elon Musk described Ai an “existential threat”.
It remains to be seen whether AI is the next stream of society or its next running fire. But if Endava's survey can be done, the British economic leaders rely on the former.
