America's AI Anxiety: A Growing Divide on Education's Cutting Edge The latest NBC News Decision Desk Poll reveals an unsettling trend in American attitudes towards artificial intelligence in education: a widening gap between those who believe AI will help students and those who think it will harm them.
According to the poll, 53% of adults are convinced that AI does more harm than good in K 12 education, while only 27% see its benefits.
This divide is not surprising, given the polarized nature of discussions around AI's role in schools.
