A new Pew Research poll reveals that while AI chatbot usage is rising, a majority of Americans remain concerned about its rapid development.

Summary

A recent Pew Research Center survey indicates that 49 percent of Americans now use AI chatbots, a significant increase from previous years, with ChatGPT usage doubling since 2023. Despite this growth, 63 percent of respondents believe the technology is advancing too quickly, and only 16 percent anticipate a positive societal impact. Notably, younger users are the most frequent adopters but also report high levels of pessimism regarding AI's long-term effects. Furthermore, while many use AI for work-related tasks to boost productivity, significant concerns persist regarding the spread of inaccurate information.
