Advances in robotics and artificial intelligence have the potential to dramatically reshape the way that Americans live and work in the coming decades. A new Pew Research Center study<\/a> finds that many Americans anticipate significant impacts from various automation technologies in the course of their lifetimes \u2013 from the widespread adoption of autonomous vehicles to the replacement of entire job categories with robot workers. And their attitudes frequently reflect worry and concern over the implications of these technologies for society as a whole.<\/p>\n\n
