📖Gallup: Gen Z Reassesses AI Use Amid Growing Concerns
A Gallup report based on a survey of nearly 1,600 U.S. respondents aged 14–29 shows declining enthusiasm for AI among Gen Z, alongside rising negative sentiment. Only 18% reported feeling hopeful and 22% excited about AI, down from 27% and 36% the previous year, while 31% expressed anger, up from 22%. Anxiety levels remained stable at around 40%.
Despite growing skepticism, AI use continues: over half of respondents reported using AI at least weekly, though adoption growth has slowed. Nearly half of Gen Z workers believe the risks of AI in the workplace outweigh the benefits, even as 56% say it improves efficiency. Eight in ten respondents indicated that reliance on AI may negatively affect learning outcomes, while around half expect AI to be necessary for education and future careers.
