The report, titled Trust, Attitudes and Use of Artificial Intelligence: A Global Study 2025, found that 69 percent of Poles regularly use AI, but trust in the technology remains limited.
Forty-one percent of Polish respondents said they trust the technology, below the global average of 46 percent.
AI-generated disinformation
Fifty-four percent said they had encountered AI-generated disinformation, and 48 percent noted negative impacts from automation.
Still, Poland ranked among the top countries in terms of openness to using AI in the workplace, with 77 percent expressing support for its presence on the job, KPMG said.
Fifty-five percent of Polish employees who use AI tools do so without informing their employer, often presenting AI-generated work as their own, according to the survey.
While 64 percent of Polish users said AI improves their work efficiency, about one in three reported that it also leads to a greater workload.
Sixty percent of Polish respondents said they feel confident using AI tools, and 70 percent claimed they can identify AI-generated content.
However, only 29 percent reported receiving any formal training in AI—10 percentage points lower than the global average.
Meanwhile, 34 percent of Polish workers feared AI could take over key parts of their jobs, and a similar proportion expected job cuts in their sector.
Thirty-one percent worried about being replaced entirely by AI, compared with 40 percent globally.
Regulatory awareness remains low, the survey found. Although there is widespread demand for national and international AI rules, 90 percent of Polish respondents said they are unaware of existing regulations.
One in three employees admitted to using AI in ways that were either careless or directly against company policy, the report said.
The survey, carried out by KPMG in collaboration with researchers at the University of Melbourne in Australia, polled over 48,000 respondents across 47 countries, including 1,082 in Poland, between November 2024 and mid-January 2025.
