In their own words, what do Americans say about artificial intelligence?

I don't know enough about AI and how it works, how it's trained, etc to predict where it's going or what will happen but us willingly creating intelligence that could become much, much smarter than us can be a scary thought at times especially since it's a mirror of humans and we have a tendency to kind of suck at times.

I am worried about artifical intelligence taking over everyone's jobs. I think it is at a point now where it is "good enough" to help out with certain things, and it doesn't need further development at the expense of people's livelihood.

I support further development of AI because it has the power to streamline everyday tasks, solve complex problems, and expand human creativity. IT can improve healthcare, education, and accessibility in ways that make life easier and more efficient. Investing in AI means investing in smarter tools that help people work, learn, and innovate at a faster, more meaningful pace.

I don't think the government should be working on AI, though I know they are the main leaders in doing so, because I don't trust the government. And I don't think *humans* should be making AI, but here we are; Terminator and every other AI taking over the world, here we come!

The entire industry relies on stealing art to train the AI. The AI get extremely bigoted extremely fast, because they are trained on content by humans (who have biases). The data centers used for the AI pollute the environments of the areas in which they are housed, which are most often communities predominantly occupied by people of color.

As a medical doctor in management, I see AI as a tool that can help improve patient care and efficiency, but it also needs strict oversight.

The genie is out of the bottle so it WILL continue. It needs to become more ethical and there need to be more safeguards. There's so much room for harm (AI gen photos / voices that mislead, people using it without attribution, AI companies training without license or compensation, etc etc) that good governments need to regulate it. The US will be behind on this because Republicans are in the tech industry's pocket, so once true government is restores this needs to be a priority.
