Fox News correspondent Grady Trimble has the latest on fears the technology will spiral out of control on'Special Report.' The use of artificial intelligence among Americans has skyrocketed since the release of platforms such as ChatGPT, and a new study found that residents of states out West are far more likely to use AI than Southern states. "The use of Artificial Intelligence in the US is on the rise, and it's clear to see why," a spokesperson for YACSS, an AI-driven company that builds websites and also conducted the study, said of the findings in a report provided to Fox News Digital. "It is frequently used to reduce time spent on tedious tasks as well as provide users with endless creative possibilities, and this is all available at the touch of a button." The study, released this month, examined Google data on keywords frequently searched by people interested in artificial intelligence over a 12-month span, and averaged each state's monthly search volume for such terms per 100,000 people.

'The Five' co-hosts discuss new AI bot ChatGPT and the impact artificial intelligence will have on future jobs. The growing strength of artificial intelligence threatens millions of jobs, but if regulators stay away, the emerging tech may make society wealthier and more productive. History has repeatedly shown the same result for other technological advances dating back to the Industrial Revolution, economist Peter St. Onge said. "Throughout history, we've gone through tremendous technological revolutions. Generally, technologies kill jobs," St. Onge, with the Heritage Foundation, told Fox News Digital.
