AMERICANS’ USE OF CHATGPT IS TICKING UP, BUT FEW TRUST ITS ELECTION INFORMATION

A Pew Research Center survey indicates ChatGPT usage among U.S. adults has increased from 18% to 23% since July 2023, with upticks in occupational, educational, and entertainment contexts. Young adults and those with higher education are more likely to use ChatGPT. Reflecting general wariness about AI and politics, 40% of Americans distrust election information from ChatGPT. Despite tech companies' efforts to combat AI-generated misinformation, only 2% of Americans have used ChatGPT to seek election-related facts.
