The rapid spread of artificial intelligence has people wondering: who’s most likely to embrace AI in their daily lives? Many assume it’s the tech-savvy – those who understand how AI works – who are most eager to adopt it.

What form of AI are we talking about? Because most of them exposed to the people are glorified toys with shady business models. While tools like AlphaFold are pretty useful.
