A new poll by the Pew Research Center has found that Americans are getting extremely fed up with artificial intelligence in their daily lives.
A whopping 53 percent of just over 5,000 US adults polled in June think that AI will “worsen people’s ability to think creatively.” Fifty percent say AI will deteriorate our ability to form meaningful relationships, while only five percent believe the reverse.
While 29 percent of respondents said they believe AI will make people better problem-solvers, 38 percent said it could worsen our ability to solve problems.
The poll highlights a growing distrust and disillusionment with AI. Average Americans are concerned about how AI tools could stifle human creativity, as the industry continues to celebrate the automation of human labor as a cost-cutting measure.
It never burst explosively, just kinda slowly deflated into being normal and useful. AI won’t do that; too much money (HUNDREDS OF BILLIONS OF DOLLARS!!!) has been pumped in too quickly for anything other than an explosively catastrophic collapse of the market. At this point, it’s a game of Nuclear Chicken between VC firms and AI firms to see who blinks first and admits the whole thing is a loss. Don’t worry, though, the greater US economy will likely crumble significantly too ¯\_(ツ)_/¯.
The NFT bubble bursted explosively.
True, but the asset damage was largely contained there as well, since nobody actually BOUGHT ANY., and it was all fake digital assets made of fake digital money. AI/LLMslop has LOADS of physical assets, and is burning so much REAL money that it’s making heads spin, not to mention the fact it has bled VC firms everywhere almost dry. It’s gonna be so, so much worse than NFTs.
