43% of Russians willing to permanently abandon AI technologies

A survey in Russia reveals contradictory attitudes toward digitalization: 80% of respondents view it positively, yet 43% are prepared to completely abandon artificial intelligence technologies, 20% would forego government services and digital documents, and 8% would give up online services. Simultaneously, the article cites an example of active AI implementation in Russian business: the company "Bud' Zdorov" uses over 10 AI solutions for transcribing appointments, analyzing medical images, and supporting clinical decisions. This highlights an existing gap between public perception and the real-world practice of digital transformation in the IT sector, particularly within the software subsector.
