Americans are pessimistic about many if not most things due to the political problems and manipulation by enemies through (social) media.
This goes for more people/populations than just Americans.

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

Even the internet held the promise of connecting people, and it was going that way until social media appeared; replacing real life connections.
AI doesn't even connect you to anyone, not technically nor superficially.
The problem here is that the term "AI" is used in many punning ways. What most people think of these days when they hear "AI" is the LLMbeciles and other forms of degenerative AI that plague us. But the "AI" used in weather forecasting is not that technology.
The grifters at OpenAI and their ilk managed to hijack a term that was already pretty loose to begin with and with it tainted a lot of actually useful technologies.
Haven't read yet but does it compare to other nationalities? I mean is it just Americans believing this?
