Hi, I’m Alfredo, a master’s student in Digital Humanities at the University of Pisa. For my thesis, I’ve put together a short survey to gather information on how we use (or avoid) artificial intelligence tools to manage our smart homes, and how much we trust their answers. The survey is for anyone with a smart home, including people who have never used AI: understanding why some prefer to do without it is just as useful.  
Responses are anonymous and it takes about 10 minutes to complete. Once data collection is over, I’ll share the results here, with the trends that emerged on how we use these tools to manage our homes.  
You can fill it in here:

> This questionnaire is part of university research (master's thesis) on trust in smart home automations, conducted at the University of Pisa. Responses are anonymous: no information that could identify you is collected, and the data will be processed...

Thank you so much for your help!
