I loved working with @bethnoveck.bsky.social and her team on this post. It’s full of data from imaginingthedigitalfuture.org/reports-and-... … and … imaginingthedigitalfuture.org/reports-and-...

➡️ New on Reboot Democracy, @lrainie.bsky.social writes about new research that shows that while many Americans are fearful in important ways about AI – particularly generative AI and LLMs – the user base is exploding. rebootdemocracy.ai/blog/love-ha... @thegovlab.org @burnescenter.bsky.social

This is such important work. Worth a full read

LLMs will have a range of positive & negative impacts in the next decade, say today's LLM users. They are upbeat about health breakthroughs, but worried about social fallout. Survey data: @ITDFuture at Elon University imaginingthedigitalfuture.org/reports-and-... #LLM #AI #GenerativeAI #AIresearch

Today's LLM users have mixed views about how the models will affect people's daily lives overall in the next 10 years. Survey findings from @ITDFuture at Elon University imaginingthedigitalfuture.org/reports-and-... #LLM #AI #GenerativeAI #AIresearch

LLM users often think the tech companies that build the models should be responsible for managing policy-related problems and issues. New survey and report from @ITDFuture at Elon University imaginingthedigitalfuture.org/reports-and-... #LLM #AI #GenerativeAI #AIresearch

NEW survey of LLM users shows there are times when they turn to the models to help them face major life moments, such as upgrading their work skills or addressing a medical issue. Per @ITDFuture at Elon University imaginingthedigitalfuture.org/reports-and-... #LLM #AI #GenerativeAI #AIresearch

Here are some of the darker impacts users say LLMs are having on them/making them feel. The list starts with making them feel lazy or like they were cheating. New survey by @ITDFuture at Elon University imaginingthedigitalfuture.org/reports-and-... #LLM #AI #GenerativeAI #AIresearch

Many more LLM users than not say their use of the models has improved their productivity, ability to solve problems and even creativity. New survey by @ITDFuture at Elon University imaginingthedigitalfuture.org/reports-and-... #LLM #AI #GenerativeAI #AIresearch

LLMs show a bunch of personality traits, according to users. They range from acting like a good work colleague to showing negative emotions like sarcasm, sadness and brusqueness. New survey @ITDFuture at Elon University imaginingthedigitalfuture.org/reports-and-... #LLM #GenerativeAI #AIresearch

LLMs have some human-like attributes, according to some of the users of the models. That includes those who think the models have the capacity to think and reason, make moral judgments. Survey by @ITDFuture at Elon University imaginingthedigitalfuture.org/reports-and-... #LLM #AI #AIresearch

LLM users say the models usually work well for them when it comes the completeness of answers, accuracy, fairness. A little less satisfaction when it comes to ethics. Data in new report @ITDFuture at Elon University imaginingthedigitalfuture.org/reports-and-... #LLM #AI #GenerativeAI #AIresearch

My favorite stats in our new report about how people use LLMs: 23% of LLM users have looked up what the models say about people they know; 18% have looked up what models say about them Data per @ITDFuture at Elon University imaginingthedigitalfuture.org/reports-and-... #LLM #AI #AIresearch

How well do people think LLMs perform for them? 75% of LLM users say they are satisfied, including 25% who are “very satisfied.” Part of a new report from @ITDFuture at Elon University about how people/think about LLMs. imaginingthedigitalfuture.org/reports-and-... #LLM #GenerativeAI #AIresearch

New data about the many things for which people use LLMs. Top of the list: search-like activities, research ideas and subjects, planning social gatherings. New report from @ITDFuture at Elon University imaginingthedigitalfuture.org/reports-and-... #LLM #AI #GenerativeAI #AIresearch

SURPRISE: Many more people use #LLMs for personal purposes than for work-related activities – and that’s even true for those who have jobs. Part of a new report from @ITDFuture at Elon University about how people use & think about LLMs imaginingthedigitalfuture.org/reports-and-... #LLM #AIresearch

NEW report on #LLM users: 72% of them have used #ChatGPT, 50% have used #Gemini; 34% of LLM users say they do so at least once a day, including 10% who use the tools almost constantly. Per @ITDFuture at Elon University imaginingthedigitalfuture.org/reports-and-... #Claude #xAI #Anthropic #Copilot

NEW data on the demographics of American users of Large Language Models like ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Copilot. Report from @ITDFuture at Elon University about how people use/think about the models. imaginingthedigitalfuture.org/reports-and-... #LLM #AIresearch #generativeAI

NEW report: Half of American adults use Large Language Models like ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Copilot. Survey findings from the Imagining the Digital Future Center at Elon University about how people use and think about the models. imaginingthedigitalfuture.org/reports-and-... #LLM #AIresearch #AI

Bottom line in NEW report about #AI and higher education: The leaders in the survey are much more likely to think their institutions will benefit than be harmed as GenAI tools are used in broader society. Report from @ITDF and @AACU imaginingthedigitalfuture.org/collaboratio... #aacu2025

What will happen to employment on college campuses as GenAI spreads? College leaders say the impact at their schools will likely be modest. Worth noting, though, that a fifth are not sure. See full details in new @itdf @aacu report at: imaginingthedigitalfuture.org/collaboratio... #aacu2025

Two-thirds of the #highered leaders think in the coming years student learning outcomes at their schools will improve as GenAI tools are used. They also think GenAI use will improve the quality of assignments & faculty research. Full report: imaginingthedigitalfuture.org/collaboratio... #aacu2025

93% of college/university leaders in new @itdf @aacu report think the traditional teaching model will be affected by the spread of GenAI tools. This ties to concerns about academic integrity, changes in teaching/learning driven by GenAI. imaginingthedigitalfuture.org/collaboratio... #aacu2025

Fully 83% of the college/university leaders use GenAI like ChatGPT or Claude, per NEW survey of higher ed bosses by @itdf @aacu. They range from power users to newbies. Full report at imaginingthedigitalfuture.org/collaboratio... #aacu2025

Major predictions from our survey of college/university leaders about what will happen on their campuses in the coming years thanks to the spread of GenAI. There’s a huge consensus about the importance of teaching #AILiteracy Full report at imaginingthedigitalfuture.org/collaboratio... #aacu2025

On U.S. campuses, a portrait of the split-screen way GenAI is seen by college leaders. They expect some strongly positive impacts AND some strongly negative impacts. NEW report from @ITDFuture @aacu presented at #AACU2025 imaginingthedigitalfuture.org/collaboratio... #AIhighered #EdTech

New report: Higher ed leaders report that on their campuses many college undergrads use GenAI like ChatGPT and Claude, and many professors don’t use the technology. @ITDFuture @aacu imaginingthedigitalfuture.org/collaboratio... #AACU2025 #AIhighered #EdTech

NEW survey of #highered leaders: 59% say cheating has increased at their school since GenAI has become available. More than half do not think their faculty are effective in recognizing GenAI-created content @ITDFuture @aacu imaginingthedigitalfuture.org/collaboratio... #AACU2025 #AIhighered

NEW: Highlight findings from survey of college/university presidents, provosts, top deans about the impact of Generative AI tools on campus life. Most expect teaching models to change and, eventually, student outcomes to improve. imaginingthedigitalfuture.org/collaboratio... #aacu2025 #ITDF

NEW SURVEY REPORT: As Generative AI tools spread across campus, college & university leaders report new levels of student cheating and concerns about their school’s preparedness. Joint effort by Elon’s ITDF Center and @aacu.org imaginingthedigitalfuture.org/collaboratio... #HigherEd #EdTech #LLM

Republicans have more a negative than positive view of both the FBI (50% unfavorable vs. 37% favorable) and DOJ (56% unfavorable vs. 33% favorable). Democrats have a more positive than negative view of both agencies. Data from July Pew Research Center survey: www.pewresearch.org/short-reads/...
