More than 70% of Americans want the right to interact with a human rather than an AI in medical, legal, educational and government settings. This proposed regulation and others were endorsed across party lines and by both regular users of AI and novices.
“What was surprising to us in this new poll was that daily users of AI, and people who view AI positively, also want regulation,” said Christopher Honey, a computational cognitive neuroscientist at Johns Hopkins and a member of the university’s Data Science and AI Institute.
