millennials led the pack with a 76% positive-or-unsure fear factor.Furthermore, 79% of surveyed Americans felt pressure to get knowledgeable about AI and the various AI tools available to people, with 89% of millennials confirming they’ve already used AI at work.In what could be considered the most telling takeaway from the Checkr survey, “67% of American workers — 59% of Boomers, 61% of Gen Xers, 77% of Millennials, and 69% of Gen Zers — said they would spend their own money to enhance AI knowledge to avoid being replaced.”Respondents’ fears may not be unfounded.
