So, in my social media bubble, I've repeatedly had people my age say young people don't like Ai. And, in these stories, the young people in question typically give appealing-to-millennials stories about not using Ai. But here's a survey from Pew that's likely underestimating since it's 6 months old.

Most interesting is the near 50% use for fun! So you can't say it's just because they're forced to use it.

It is possible to hate the thing but still be required to use it

@ZachWeinersmith @jherazob 47% says they used it at least once, it's quite the stretch to conflate that with " are using ". If you tried chatgpt without a need just to see what the hype is about, that would probably already fall in the "fun or entertainment" category.
Yet it's probably the most sensible use for it, as the reliability for anything else is doubtful at best.
