Abstract

With the rapid spread of digital technologies, employee openness toward the workplace integration of artificial intelligence (AI) has become a key factor in the adaptability of organizations within the information and communication technology (ICT) sector. This study aims to identify the main factors influencing openness to AI integration, with a focus on employee engagement, work experience, job position, and educational background. Based on a survey conducted among 129 employees, the authors applied ordinal logistic regression to test their hypotheses. Results indicate that employee engagement, ICT-specific work experience, and managerial roles significantly increase openness to AI. In contrast, age, general work experience, and education level did not show a significant effect. The practical implication of the study is that successful AI implementation requires strengthening employee engagement and ensuring managerial support.
