AI^2: An exploration of the relationship between anti-intellectualism and artificial intelligence

The purpose of this study is to explore a potential positive relationship between anti-intellectualism and opinions about artificial intelligence. More specifically, we anticipate that people measured as having higher trait anti-intellectualism will also report more positive attitudes toward and greater usage of artificial intelligence. This relationship should hold constant when other hypothesized variables, such as openness and need for cognition, are controlled for.
