AI Policy Institute — polling-finding: 83% of Americans believe AI could accidentally cause a catastrophic event; 77% say government should do more to regulate AI; 73% believe AI companies should be liable for harms
The source text explicitly confirms the 83% figure from a July 18-21, 2023 AIPI/YouGov poll of 1,001 voters. However, the source excerpt provided does not contain the other two claimed statistics (77% on government regulation and 73% on company liability). The claim states these are 'aggregate findings across multiple AIPI polls 2023-2024,' but the source excerpt only shows results from the July 2023 poll. While the AI Policy Institute website likely contains these other figures elsewhere (the excerpt shows 'Latest Poll Results >' link), they are not present in the provided source text. Therefore, one-third of the claim is confirmed, but two-thirds cannot be verified from this excerpt.

NoteThe source text confirms the 83% figure from a July 2023 AIPI poll. However, the source excerpt provided does not contain the other two statistics claimed (77% on government regulation and 73% on company liability). The claim references 'aggregate findings across multiple AIPI polls 2023-2024,' suggesting these other figures may exist in other AIPI polls not shown in this excerpt. Since one of three claimed figures is confirmed but the other two are not addressed in the provided source text, this is a partial confirmation. The source does not contradict the missing figures—it simply doesn't include them.
