According to a recent survey by Pew Research Center, only 18% of American adults have ever used ChatGPT. This data shows that although artificial intelligence technology has attracted much attention, its penetration rate is still relatively low in actual applications. This phenomenon may stem from public unfamiliarity with emerging technologies or uncertainty about their potential impact.
Meanwhile, the survey shows that 47% of Americans expressed concern about the development of artificial intelligence, especially uneasy about the possible employment impacts. This concern reflects a widespread public concern about the possible socio-economic impact of technological change. Interestingly, however, it is generally believed that the technology has a small impact on their work by those with in-depth knowledge of ChatGPT, suggesting that the impact in practical applications may differ from general public perceptions.
Although ChatGPT has attracted widespread attention in the technology community and in the media, its actual usage rate is still at a low level. This phenomenon may stem from many factors, including technical thresholds, limitations of use scenarios, and public acceptance of new technologies. With the continuous development and popularity of technology, the utilization rate of ChatGPT may gradually increase in the future, but at the same time, it is also necessary to resolve public concerns and misunderstandings about artificial intelligence.
This survey results not only reflect the current acceptance of artificial intelligence technology in American society, but also provide important reference for future technology promotion and policy formulation. How to effectively alleviate public concerns while promoting technological innovation will be a key issue that needs to be paid attention to in the development of artificial intelligence.
