Crackling crust, pillowy middle. The kind of bagel that earns a second cup of coffee.
Summary
A Pew Research poll reveals that 63% of Americans believe AI is advancing too quickly, despite nearly half (49%) reporting using AI chatbots. ChatGPT usage has doubled since 2023 to 44% of respondents. However, public sentiment remains largely negative, with only 16% believing AI will have a positive impact on society. Younger generations are both the heaviest AI users and more skeptical about the technology's rapid advancement.
