F-Secure survey finds 70% of AI users do not regularly verify answers

Sep 23, 2026
A survey of 1,500 AI users in the US and UK found that 70% check AI answers only sometimes, rarely, or never, despite widespread concern about accuracy.

F-Secure said in a press release that its survey of 1,500 AI users in the US and UK found 70% check AI answers only sometimes, rarely, or never. Nearly 90% said users are responsible for verifying responses.

The survey found that 47.3% stop questioning an answer when it sounds correct, while 25.2% have followed AI advice for a major personal decision. Another 35.3% have used one AI system to fact check another.

Among frequent users who rely on AI for several purposes, 59.7% had accepted answers without verification. That compared with 28.6% of people who mainly used AI for questions with low stakes. The survey also found that 83.9% had multiple concerns about AI while continuing to use it at least weekly.

Tensordyne Napier: What If One Rack Could Do the Work of Nine?

Tensordyne

This Tensordyne whitepaper presents Napier, an inference-focused AI processor and rack-scale system based on the company’s TDN Math logarithmic number system. It examines infrastructure requirements for large mixture-of-experts and agentic models, compares major inference architecture approaches, and details the TDN AIP processor, TDN72 pod, TDN Link fabric, and Napier Ultra configuration. The paper reports simulation-based performance, cost, and accuracy-validation results, including Tensordyne’s projected comparison of one Napier rack with a nine-rack Nvidia Rubin plus Groq deployment; the chip is reported as taped out and in fabrication.
