A new Pew Research Center survey just revealed that 52% of Americans are more concerned than excited about AI in daily life, up from 37% in 2021. For the first time, a 55% majority of adults under 30 share that concern, while 71% expect AI to reduce jobs over the next two decades. Why it matters: The demographic expected to embrace AI the most is growing increasingly convinced it threatens their future.
Pew Research Center just found that nearly half of U.S. adults now use AI chatbots, up sharply from 2024, with ChatGPT leading the pack at 44%. But deeper adoption hasn't won hearts and minds: 63% of Americans believe the tech is advancing too quickly, and 71% fear it will erode their data privacy.
Pew Research Center just found that while 58% of U.S. adults are familiar with ChatGPT, only 14% have actually tried it themselves for work, learning, or entertainment. Awareness is significantly higher among college graduates and adults under 30. Among those who have used the chatbot, roughly four-in-ten say it has been somewhat useful.
