AI Fear & Trust Index

Updated three times a day

Every AI system we track, and what people are saying about it

This is not a ranking of which AI is best. It is a measurement of where public discourse currently sits for each one, on a scale from trust at 0 to fear at 100. A high number means people are talking about it fearfully — not that it is dangerous, and not that it is bad.

All of them, side by side

Models and labs are listed together here for scanning only. They are ranked separately below, because a product and the company that ships it are not competitors: what is said about the product is also part of what is said about the company.

The four things people are afraid of

Every entity above is scored against these four. When no single one leads by more than the sampling error, the entity is marked as having no single theme rather than being given the largest of four near-equal shares.
