The 81K study reads less as a report about what people want from AI than as a diagnostic scan of a civilisation that outsourced its care infrastructure, overloaded its workers, defunded its public spaces, and then watched a machine move into every gap it left empty. The respondents are not confused about what they are asking for. They are asking for what was taken from them. That AI is the tool they are asking with, and the tool that threatens to take more, is the entanglement the study maps with clinical precision.
