Abstract
The paper analyzes the views of technology entrepreneurs and investors on artificial intelligence (AI). The study uses two data collection methods: interviews and questionnaires. Based on the results of the analysis, respondents' views on the main risks associated with the use of AI were revealed, as well as the expected effects from its use in emerging companies. Using ordinal logistic regression, it was revealed that the idea that AI is “hype” is negatively influenced by the experience of founding a company, as well as the use of AI in everyday life. Using the method of hierarchical clustering, groups of respondents with similar views on AI were identified and described.
