Older workers are more bullish on AI than younger ones

Older employees are significantly more positive about AI than their younger colleagues, according to a new survey by Glassdoor.

Among members of Generation X (those born between 1965 and 1980), nearly half of respondents had a positive view of the new AI technology. At the same time, just one-third of Generation Z (that is, those born between 1997 and 2012) share that same level of positivity.

The reason younger people have a more negative attitude toward AI? Strong concerns that the technology will eventually take their jobs, reports Bloomberg.
