The majority of Americans are AI illiterate


  • A national survey, involving 1,547 adult Americans who were given a 20-question quiz about AI’s capabilities, found that only 16% of the test takers scored a passing grade of better than 60% on the quiz.
  • “The majority of Americans are AI illiterate,” Nicole DeCario and Oren Etzioni report today in a posting to PNW.ai, an information service provided by the institute, also known as AI2. Etzioni is AI2’s CEO, while DeCario leads AI2’s special projects team.
  • So what’s the prescription? DeCario and Etzioni recommend adding the basic principles of AI and digital ethics to school curricula, beginning in middle school and building up to high-school coursework. As an example, they point to Colby College’s $30 million initiative to establish a cross-disciplinary institute focusing on AI.
  • AI2’s survey was conducted online in partnership with Echelon Insights from July 13 to 15. The survey sample reflected population targets from the American Community Survey for gender, age, race/ethnicity, education and region.

    • The researchers acknowledge that the extent of AI illiteracy shouldn’t be surprising. “AI is not part of our schools’ curricula, and the main source of information about it today, according to our survey, is YouTube and social media,” they write.
    • However, they argue that a basic understanding of how artificial intelligence works is “critical for informing everyday decisions, adopting appropriate economic policies and maintaining national security.”

    • DeCario and Etzioni compare the need for AI literacy standards in the 21st century to the need for the basics of reading, writing and arithmetic in the 19th century.
    • “To compete in this digital world, we must educate them on computer power, potential and limitations while encouraging an intentional focus on ethics to ensure continued tech advancement is grounded in values we hold dear,” they write.
    • “We need a systematic way to distribute information at scale,” the researchers write. “To that end, we ask that the Biden administration include the development of an AI literacy standard as part of the National AI Initiative within the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy. We also call on companies big and small to better educate their employees and consumers about the true capabilities and limits of AI.”
