The polls I've seen make it seem like there's much more public distress about AI than excitement, so yeah. Honestly pushing ai into people's faces and talking non-stop about how great it is really has a negative effect on its PR I belive. People don't like being told "you'll eat it and you'll like it" and AI bros haven't got much empathy for people who see it as ugly, boring, gross and filling the internet and life generally with crap.
