If we thought artificial intelligence was universally loved by Gen Z, we'll have to think again. Some speakers who mentioned the rising importance of AI at graduation ceremonies this spring were booed instead of cheered.
But, we might think, don't they all use it gladly to cheat on homework? Yes, some do.
But aren't they all enthusiastically learning how to use it so that they won't be left behind in the job market? Yes, some are. But about one-third in a recent survey said that "the tech makes them feel angry." Almost half say that "the risks of AI in the work force outweigh the benefits."
It might be that students are tired of the pressure placed on their lives by technology in general, hoping to find a simpler, more satisfying life centered on personal relationships.
