Young people increasingly turning to AI for fact checking

Nearly half of young people say they would trust artificial intelligence over a human to check whether something is true.

A survey of more than 4,000 people aged between 11 and 24 in England found that almost 87 percent have already used an AI tool.

However, fewer than one in ten believe their school or university is preparing them for a future shaped by artificial intelligence.

A new report warns that education providers risk losing the trust of young people unless they adapt more quickly to the growing use of AI.
