Pew Research Center’s survey of adults in 25 countries shows concern outweighs enthusiasm toward AI’s growing presence in daily life. A median 34% are more concerned than excited, while only 16% are more excited than concerned. Awareness is broad but uneven, with 34% hearing a lot about AI and 47% hearing a little, heavily skewed toward higher-income countries. For regulation, 53% trust the EU, 37% trust the U.S., 27% trust China, and confidence in national governments ranges from 89% in India to 22% in Greece. Younger adults, men, the highly educated and heavy internet users report higher awareness and greater excitement than older, less-connected groups. Political alignment also matters: U.S. Republicans and Europe’s right-leaning voters show more faith in the U.S., while younger respondents in 19 nations place greater trust in China as an AI regulator.

Faced with the questions and challenges of modern life, Vijay Meel, a 25-year-old student who lives in Rajasthan, India, turns to God. In the past he's consulted spiritual leaders. More recently, he asked GitaGPT. GitaGPT is an artificial intelligence (AI) chatbot trained on the Bhagavad Gita, the holy book of 700 verses of dialogue with the Hindu god Krishna. GitaGPT looks like any text conversation you'd have with a friend – except the AI tells you you're texting with a god. "When I couldn't clear my banking exams, I was dejected," Meel says. But after stumbling on GitaGPT, he typed in details about his inner crisis and asked for the AI's advice. "Focus on your actions and let go of the worry for its fruit," GitaGPT said. This, along with other guidance, left Meel feeling inspired. "It wasn't a saying I was unaware of, but at that point, I needed someone to reiterate it to me," Meel says. "This reflection helped me revamp my thoughts and start preparing all over again." Since then, GitaGPT has become something like a friend, that he chats with once or twice a week.
