Cultural factors of (mis)trust in artificial intelligence using cinema as an example

The article analyzes the influence of cinema on the formation of perception and trust in artificial intelligence (AI) technologies. The evolution of the image of AI is considered using cinema as an example, noting the change in citizens' attitudes from admiration to fear. The study includes an analysis of thematic literature, as well as a survey of 870 respondents in Moscow and an analysis of 58 popular films about AI. The article notes the inconsistency of information about AI in the media and society, which complicates the formation of trust in new technologies. The importance of studying intelligent technologies for understanding new risks and limitations is emphasized. The authors call for scientific popularization of the topic of AI in cinema and the need to create «narratives of the future that awaken hope» as opposed to the prevailing scenarios. The study emphasizes the role of professional communities, including filmmakers, in constructing a space of trust in new technologies.
