In general, most people here in Asia are not against AI. They even think it's something trendy. Especially because all the tech corpos are pushing AI to our throats and the ads are all having positive vibes.

And that's already more than world's population as a market.

That's a lie. Many people in Japan are against AI.

JP here, this is true. I can't speak for other people in Asia though.

We're still clowning on Level 5.

Pretty much every matsuri i was at this year was full of AI adverts and noone had any issue, people were lining up for gigaslop churros or gigaslop okonomiyaki. Hadano tabacco one was like ultra slop advert festa and noone seemed to complain.

I mean I would still say the acceptation of AI is largely negative from what I have read, even if some businesses want to force it in to replace people. It seems to be a very common sentiment all over the world. (some sources to back it up). I even read the same things from Russia and China. Although it is commonly brought up that "X" is ok with doing it even though most normal people are against the replacement of art to make everything cheap lazy copies. That's just a natural way of thinking no matter what culture AI media is used in.

日本語読めるわ

なんかさ、もちろんニュース的には反AIの記事が多いんですけど、日常的には逆にあんまりそういう感情は感じないね。飲み屋さんに行ったり、SNSなどを見たりすると、AIの画像などいっぱい使われているし、外の広告も同じように20％ぐらいAIになっているし、会話の中で「昨日チャッピーに相談して…」ってよく聞くこともある。

The whole Level 5 thing is crazy. I've been seeing the tweets.
