Poll: Would you trust AI to give you financial advice?

A new survey has highlighted the growing use of artificial intelligence in financial services.

It also found that both usage and trust varied across age groups.

Tánaiste Simon Harris said age appeared to be a significant factor in how consumers use and trust AI.
