A separate study described in the WSJ article, conducted by Parks Associates, confirms this trend. Of roughly 4,000 Americans surveyed, 18% said AI would make them more likely to buy, 24% said less likely, and 58% said it made no difference.

Among younger respondents (age 18 to 44), 24% to 27% said they would likely buy a product advertised as including AI. But among respondents age 65 and older, 32% said they would be less likely to buy a product advertised with AI.

The most affluent customer segment, older adults with disposable income, is the group most often rejecting AI marketing.
