Majority of UK employees want ethical AI training as usage grows – Photoroom
Research revealed that 18% of workers said knowing how to use AI properly would improve their company’s performance.
Almost two-thirds of UK employees wanted training in ethical artificial intelligence (AI), according to research from Photoroom.
The AI-powered photo-editing software firm found nearly one-fifth of UK workers used AI at least once a day.
Photoroom research also found 18% of workers said knowing how to use AI properly would improve their company’s performance.
In hospitality, nearly a third (29%) of workers said AI was vital for business success.
An additional survey of 5,000 UK workers by the Institute for the Future of Work showed there was widespread anxiety and uncertainty about AI being introduced to workplaces.
Matthieu Rouif, CEO at Photoroom, said the problem was not the technology itself, but a lack of preparation for working with AI.
The Corndell 2025 Workplace Training report found 49% of employees believed AI was moving faster than their company could train them, which created a skills gap.
Meanwhile, 65% wanted ethical AI training because of concerns about responsible use.
