Only 38 percent of Americans view AI-related news coverage favorably, according to an Ipsos poll cited in recent U.S. opinion tracking.
The figure represents a decline from sentiment measured a year earlier, suggesting growing public wariness toward how media outlets cover artificial intelligence. Pollsters did not specify whether dissatisfaction reflected tone, accuracy or frequency of AI stories.
Coverage of AI has accelerated as technology companies release new models and governments debate regulation. Surveys in other countries have shown mixed attitudes, with enthusiasm for productivity gains often paired with concern about job displacement and misinformation.
The Ipsos finding arrives as newsrooms themselves experiment with AI tools for research and production, a practice that has drawn scrutiny from journalists and advocacy groups.
