Artificial intelligence has permeated nearly every part of daily American life. It’s being adopted across the professional sphere, and threatening to replace large swaths of workers. It’s appeared in classrooms, doctor’s offices, and in Hollywood. And AI-generated content has penetrated your Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok feeds.
But even as AI weaves its way into the everyday, it’s failed to win over most Americans. That’s according to a new NBC News poll. The survey of 1,000 registered voters between Feb. 27 and March 3 found that just 26% had a positive view of AI, while 46% had a negative view. Those dismal numbers are third worst, trailing only the Democratic Party, which had a 22-point net negative rating, and Iran, with a 53-point net negative.
