    In Japan and China people are actually optimistic about AI.

    It’s not the tech itself, it’s the fact that in some countries, new technology is used for power and control instead of lifting everyone.

      As a Japanese, I don’t think Japan looks it’s okay. If you provoke manga artists, illustrators, animators, gamers, Nintendo or FromSoftware, you face the strongest possible anger in our country.

        I was mainly going off this poll and a few others that had similar results. I do see Japan is a bit of an outlier, but they still seem to view AI more favorably than the US and Europe.

          Please check the date. When we have passed the one of most dramatic years in world history, a poll from one and a half years ago is not so helpful. Well, I also thought artists were overreacting in that time. I was a PC gamer. Next, Stargate. My Niemöller Moment.

          edit: about date.
