We — the American people — have a growing love affair with artificial intelligence (AI). At this point, a lot of you are scratching your head wondering what that means. A lot of us are now using AI to do a number of things for us. Here’s a list of just some of the uses:
- Personalized shopping
- Some of us use it as an AI-Powered Assistant to remind us of things to do
- Fraud prevention on our smart devices
- Creating smart content
- Voice assistants
- Personalized learning
- Helping to drive our cars and trucks
- And more…
The AI love affair was recently revealed by website designer, YACSS. It took a deep look at Google keywords data of search terms often used by people searching for AI help in the last year.
The terms defined as AI were combined to determine how often, per month, people in each state used AI to assist them in a number of ways. The results were released in a per 100,000 format.
Utah is the state doing the most AI use but the PIA Western Alliance States of Oregon and Washington were second and third in the most use. Association states Alaska and Idaho were sixth and eighth respectively.
A YACSS spokesperson put the growth in AI use in perspective.
“The use of Artificial Intelligence in the US is on the rise, and it’s clear to see why,” the unidentified spokesperson said. “It is frequently used to reduce time spent on tedious tasks as well as provide users with endless creative possibilities, and this is all available at the touch of a button. The most recent surge in popularity of ChatGPT has caused millions of Americans to use the tool in everyday life, introducing them to AI.”
The spokesperson noted that AI is also much more accurate than we mere humans.
“Artificial Intelligence is excellent for improving accuracy and precision while reducing common errors in writing,” the person noted. “As well as introducing a whole industry of new jobs alongside aiding huge sectors such as education, healthcare, finance, marketing, cybersecurity and many more.”
