Nearly three-quarters of Americans say artificial intelligence companies are not doing enough to prevent serious harm from the technology, according to a Reuters/Ipsos survey released Tuesday. The poll finds 73% of respondents do not agree that AI firms have implemented safeguards to prevent serious harm, indicating widespread skepticism about current risk controls.
Both outlets describe the finding as part of a broader pattern of rising public concern about AI safety and disaster-prevention measures. While the articles focus primarily on the same percentage and survey framing, they differ mainly in how they introduce the topic and summarize the implications. The Hill emphasizes that the results reflect worry that safeguards are insufficient, while Channel NewsAsia similarly highlights that “three out of four” Americans share that view. Neither outlet provides additional breakdowns such as demographic differences or the specific types of safeguards referenced beyond the general question of whether protections exist.
