New from the Pew Research Center: Our annual updated look at nuclear power in the U.S. What’s the public opinion story? Support for more nuclear power plants to generate electricity is up 16 percentage points since 2020 (from 43% to 59%), driven by increasing support among both Democrats and Republicans. Also this year we asked respondents in an open-ended question why they favor or oppose more nuclear power. Why do Americans favor and oppose nuclear power in their own words? The most common reason for favoring more nuclear power is that it is a clean or low-carbon way of producing energy. Safety concerns are the most common reason why Americans oppose more nuclear power. There is a lot more analysis and information here, so check it out! Thanks to Rebecca Leppert for spearheading this work over the past few years and Isabelle Pula for managing the open-ends process. https://lnkd.in/gzmMaaCE

Excited to share Pew Research Center's first international foray into attitudes towards #AI! https://pewrsr.ch/4q65IR7 Some surprising findings (to me at least): - Most people across 25 countries surveyed have heard or read at least a little about #AI - Americans are among the most concerned about AI technology. But across 25 countries, most share equal levels of concern and excitement about AI use in daily life - People who say they use the internet almost constantly are more likely than others to be mainly excited about the growing use of AI in everyday life - Most trust their own country to regulate AI, but 89% in #India do compared with 22% in #Greece -  When it comes to other regulating entities, more people globally tend to trust the #EU to regulate AI than trust the #US or #China. - Younger adults tend to express higher levels of trust in China – and, to a lesser extent, in the U.S. – to regulate AI when compared with older adults. Lots of other interesting findings. Enjoy! https://lnkd.in/dW9MBtvw

Around the world, more are concerned than excited about AI use, and more trust their own country and the EU to regulate it than trust the U.S. or China.
