U.S. public and AI experts differ significantly in views on AI's potential. Experts are more optimistic about its benefits but share common concerns with the public over regulation and personal control. Surveys reveal that while 56% of experts see AI positively affecting the U.S. in 20 years, only 17% of the public agrees. Experts also believe AI will personally benefit them more than the public does. There are notable gender differences in optimism among experts, with men generally more positive than women. Both groups worry about job impacts, with the public more skeptical about AI creating jobs. Overall, there is a mutual desire for better regulation and a shared apprehension about AI risks like misinformation and bias.
