The rapid spread of artificial intelligence has people wondering: who’s most likely to embrace AI in their daily lives? Many assume it’s the tech-savvy – those who understand how AI works – who are most eager to adopt it.

Surprisingly, our new research (published in the Journal of Marketing) finds the opposite. People with less knowledge about AI are actually more open to using the technology. We call this difference in adoption propensity the “lower literacy-higher receptivity” link.

    The real question in my opinion is how does a pro truly benefit from it other than being a different type of a search engine

      Yea, if you are a pro in something it most of the time only tells you what you already know (I sometimes use it as a sort of sanity check, by writing prompts that I think I know the output that comes)

        I only found it useful doing trivial chores such as converting between data structures, maybe create a test for a function, parsing and some regex. Anything deeper than that was full of errors or the it offered was suboptimal at best. It also fails a lot of times in fetching the relevant docs/sources for the discussion. I gave up trying after so many times it basically told me " go search for yourself"
