The first wave surveyed nearly 52,000 Americans in late 2025 and found broad hopes for medical progress and accessibility, alongside major fears about job loss, cognitive dependency, and misinformation. Respondents also showed bipartisan support for government involvement, legal accountability, privacy protections, child safety rules, and stronger oversight of AI companies.
