尽管全球公众对人工智能的态度日趋负面，但AI产品的使用规模仍在急速扩张。ChatGPT在5月已达到10亿月活跃用户1，Google DeepMind的Gemini在7月拥有9.5亿用户1。根据调查，全球38个OECD国家中，超三分之一的成年人在过去三个月内使用过生成式AI工具1，而美国成年人中已有半数表示使用过聊天机器人，是2023年的两倍多1。
然而，公众的担忧与反对声浪同样显著。71%的美国成年人反对在其地区建设新AI数据中心1，这一反对比例甚至超过了针对核电站的反对率（53%）1。在监管层面，美国50个州已通过或提议了AI治理法律，三年内相关法案超过2100项，增长幅度达到十倍1。
这种矛盾现象反映出，公众的抵触情绪并非源于技术本身，而是对科技公司推行AI方式和过度宣传的不满1。与社交媒体领域不同的是，当前存在制定监管制度和发展开源替代品的可能性1。
A significant contradiction is emerging in how people engage with artificial intelligence: despite widespread public concern about the technology, usage of AI products continues to surge dramatically.1 ChatGPT reached one billion monthly active users in May, while Google DeepMind's Gemini attracted 950 million users by July.1 Across 38 OECD countries, more than one-third of adults have used generative AI tools within the past three months.1 In the United States alone, half of all adults report using chatbots—more than double the figure from 2023.1
Public opposition to AI deployment remains pronounced, however. Seventy-one percent of American adults oppose building new AI data centers in their local areas, a figure that exceeds opposition to nuclear power plant construction, which stands at 53 percent.1 This skepticism has prompted policy action, with 50 U.S. states having either passed or proposed AI governance legislation, resulting in over 2,100 related bills within three years—a tenfold increase.1
The discrepancy between stated opposition and actual usage suggests that public frustration may be directed at how technology companies deploy and promote AI rather than the technology itself.1 This distinction offers potential paths forward through regulation and open-source alternatives that differ from the trajectory of social media adoption.1
