Pew Research Center Announces Its Approach to Artificial Intelligence Usage

Pew Research Center has shared in detail how it positions artificial intelligence technologies in its work. The organization stated that surveys and analyses are entirely based on real humans, and that artificial intelligence is used only for support purposes in certain technical and administrative processes under human supervision.

Human-Centric Research Processes

Pew Research Center emphasizes that real humans form the basis of its research and surveys. Artificial intelligence is strictly not used to generate or model synthetic public opinion, and all decisions are made by expert researchers.

Areas Where Artificial Intelligence is Used

The organization prefers artificial intelligence assistants in limited areas such as coding, website generation, text editing, and derivative content creation. While software engineers and researchers benefit from these tools, the process is still carried out under human supervision.

Visual and Data Security Policies

Photos and illustrations used in the studies consist of real people and are selected by human editors. Furthermore, survey participants' personal information is strictly never transferred to any open and public artificial intelligence tool.

Transparency and Future Steps

The organization states that it will transparently explain the meaningful use of artificial intelligence in research within the methodology section of its reports. It is stated that the public will be informed in the event of any potential changes in external product production processes.
