A majority of Americans are more concerned than excited by the increased use of artificial intelligence, with the number of those concerned growing dramatically in recent years, according to a new survey released this week.
The Pew Research survey found that 52% of Americans polled said they are “more concerned than excited” by the increased use of AI in daily life, compared to 36% who are “equally excited and concerned” and 10% who are “more excited than concerned.”
Just last year, 38% of those surveyed were “more concerned than excited” – and in 2021, that number was 37%.
