The Global Artificial Intelligence Adoption Survey is a large-scale international research initiative coordinated by the University of Ljubljana (Slovenia) under the lead of Prof. Dr. Aleksander Aristovnik. The consortium includes researchers from over 80 countries, all dedicated to exploring how public-sector employees perceive, experience, and adopt Artificial Intelligence (AI) in their professional environments. The project examines the ways in which AI is transforming public organizations, focusing on employees’ readiness, perceived benefits and risks, and the broader implications for public management and service delivery. In Germany, the study is coordinated by Prof. Dr. Jens Weiß (Harz University of Applied Sciences), with Prof. Dr. Anna Steidle (HVF Ludwigsburg) serving as Deputy National Coordinator. At HVF, the research contributes to understanding the organizational, ethical, and human-centred dimensions of AI adoption in public administration and related sectors of public service.
