Pew survey: High-income Americans are more optimistic about AI improving healthcare, while low-income groups remain pessimistic

Rohan Paul cites a new Pew Research survey showing that 55% of high-income American adults believe AI will help patients, compared to only 25% of low-income groups. The survey also reveals deep polarization: 37% think AI diagnostics will lead to better health outcomes, while 36% expect worse results and 26% see little impact. Most Americans are reluctant to have doctors rely solely on AI for diagnosis; however, 47% accept cases where an AI diagnosis is reviewed by a human, while only 3% would accept an AI diagnosis without any human involvement.
