What Web Browsing Data Tells Us About How AI Appears Online [REPORT]
June 7, 2025

An analysis of one month of browsing data finds that around six-in-ten respondents visited a search page with an AI-generated summary. But visits to more in-depth content about AI were relatively rare.
As artificial intelligence (AI) advances rapidly and becomes increasingly commonplace in online spaces, the American public has shown a clear wariness about its potential impact on individuals and society.
