Summary
A global Pew Research survey of over 42,000 people across 37 countries found that most people fear AI will destroy jobs rather than create them over the next 20 years, with particularly high concern in wealthy nations like Australia, South Korea, and the US. The survey was conducted from February to May and reflects widespread public anxiety about AI's impact on employment and income inequality.
