The general public don't understand what they're talking about so it's not worth asking them.
What is the point in surveys like this, we don't operate on direct democracy so there's literally no value in these things except to stir the pot.

Generally, people are wary of disruptive technology. While this technology has potential to displace a plethora of jobs for the sake of increased productivity, companies won’t be able to move product if unemployment skyrockets.
Regardless of what people think, the Pandora’s box of AI is opened and now the only way forward is to adapt.
Yes.
All our science fiction stories prepared us for a world where AI was only possible with a giant supercomputer somewhere, or some virus that exists beyond human control, spread throughout the internet.
We were not prepared for the reality that all at once, any average Joe could create an AI on their home PC.
We absolutely can't go backwards, and right now we're are in the most important race in history, against every other country and company to create the best AI.
Whoever can make a self-replicating, self-improving AI first will rule the world. Or rather its AI will.
What companies have decided to call AI is not at all the same as what AI used to refer to and what science fiction stories refer to.

A majority of U.S. adults don't belive jack shit about the benefits of most things.
I'm more angry I can't use a co-pilot at work yet
Most US adults never aspire to create anything and thus a tool that is useful for creating is of no use to them.
