A Pew Research Center survey shows younger US workers are increasingly hostile toward artificial intelligence, citing concerns that technological advances will eliminate jobs.
The survey reveals a growing divide between age groups on AI adoption and implementation. Young Americans express particular anxiety about the technology's impact on employment prospects, with many viewing AI development as a threat rather than an opportunity.
This skepticism contrasts with earlier optimism about AI's potential benefits. The shift reflects real concerns about workforce displacement across sectors, from creative industries to white-collar positions traditionally considered stable.
The findings suggest generational differences in how Americans perceive technological change. While some see AI as a tool for productivity and innovation, younger workers—who are earlier in their careers—worry about competing with automated systems for jobs.
The survey adds to ongoing debates about AI regulation and workplace adaptation. Policymakers and industry leaders continue discussing training programs, safety standards, and economic policies to address job displacement concerns.
