Differences in attitudes toward institutionalization orientation by country/area, gender, and age. (A) We divided the respondents into four categories according to their agreement or disagreement with the unified standardization of AI and the type of AI to be standardized. (Dark blue) The most common category of respondents was autonomous disengagers, who opposed uniform standardization of a single AI system and preferred Individual precedence AI when standardization is inevitable. (Light blue) The second most common category was deliberate ignorers, who chose to make Individual precedence AI the unified standard. (Orange) The respondents who chose to standardize a World Precedence AI were idealists and considered proactive preventers. (Red) The hesitant acceptors, who opposed uniform standardization but chose World precedence AI if standardization was inevitable, demonstrated a proactive attitude toward the problem of AMR. (B–D) Scatter plot of the proportion of respondents who preferred World-AI as the unified diagnostic system on the horizontal axis and the proportion of respondents who preferred AI standardization on the vertical axis. (B) Countries/areas differences, (C) gender differences in all eight countries/areas and (D) age group differences in all eight countries/areas.
