Increasing number of Americans say they are more concerned than excited about AI: survey

Fox News' Eben Brown reports on how more companies are using AI technology to set retail prices based on data-driven supply and demand. 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%. WHAT IS ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE (AI)? The increase in concern comes amid greater awareness and use of the technology, concerns about retaining control over the tech, potential employment implications and how fast the technology is being adopted in key areas.
