It highlights that, while trust is often discussed in human relationships, it can be relevant in our relationship with technology, particularly as technologies become more anthropomorphized and integrated into society. However, it warns that efforts to create “trustworthy AI” may be misguided, as trust is a dynamic and subjective concept that cannot be fully regulated or equated with mere risk acceptability. This suggests a need for a deeper understanding and cautious approach when addressing trust in emerging technologies.
