Citizens Trust AI-Based Early Detection Less

A cross-sectional survey of 5,000 adult residents in Schleswig-Holstein, Germany, conducted November–December 2023, assessed trust in AI-supported early disease detection in general practice. Among 1,790 respondents, 44.0% viewed AI screening as a sign of modern medicine, 35.4% rated AI’s future role as very important, and trust in GP diagnoses was roughly six times higher than trust in AI-based diagnoses.
