Americans are worried about using AI more in daily life, seeing harm to human creativity and relationships. But they’re open to AI use in weather forecasting, medicine and other data-heavy tasks.
Americans know that our neighbors are other Americans. Those Americans were educated in our public school system and already weren’t inquisitive or imaginative to add to the very little they managed to glean from their formal schooling. Now you hand them a thing and tell them it can do creative things for them (Americans are lazy creatures) or handle important things that they just can’t be bothered with, or tells them that they are completely correct about something they very aren’t, and they believe it because they want to.
It’s difficult to be optimistic when you know what you’re surrounded by. LLMs are a bad technology for most of their current applications.
Americans are pessimistic about many if not most things due to the political problems and manipulation by enemies through (social) media.
This goes for more people/populations than just Americans.
