Gen Z Resentment Toward AI Grows as Adoption Stagnates and Workplace Fears Mount (waltonfamilyfoundation.org)

31% seems remarkably high. Here we seem to be running up against the limitations of statistics. It is hard to interpret whether this is a scared-and-angry sort of angry or if there is something AI-related happening that is making them angry. I might have been lucky in my experiences, but generally if people get angry there is a reason other than "things are changing".

They can still do gig works for training AI until AI replaces all the gig workers.

Token cost started increasing exponentially for frontier LLMs, and they improved mostly on coding tasks incredibly over the last half year while staying behind in non-verifiable tasks.

The main social problem with automation in general was that less intelligent people have been left behind as only boring physical tasks are left for them to do, and people don't generally want to go back destroying their body from the prospects of an office job.

At some point frontier AI will only getting only worthwile to use for only super highly intelligent and motivated AI researchers which is a tiny part of the population.

No one cares about GenZ or any others, the AI is for the billionaires.

Unless the next generation avoids it en masse, only leaving niche users like coders and executives pushing down their employee's throats, leading to not enough ROI on data centers, eventually nearing bankrupcy due to debt, taking down Big tech who invested in it with it.

> While the majority of Gen Zers (51%) still use the technology weekly, growth has slowed to a crawl, increasing only four percentage points over the past year. This stagnation in adoption is accompanied by a sharp decline in positive sentiment.
