[Poll Shows 15% of Americans Are Willing to Accept AI Bosses, 70% Concerned About AI Impact on Employment] Deep Tide TechFlow News, March 31: According to a report by *TechCrunch*, Quinnipiac University conducted a survey of 1,397 American adults from March 19 to 23, 2026. The results show that 15% of respondents are willing to accept AI programs as direct supervisors to assign tasks and set schedules. However, 70% of respondents believe that AI development will reduce job opportunities, and 30% of employed individuals are worried that their positions will be replaced by AI. Meanwhile, the trend of AI replacing management roles is accelerating within companies: Workday has launched AI agents capable of handling expense approval processes for employees, Amazon has deployed AI workflows to replace middle management functions and has laid off a significant number of managers, and Uber engineers have even built an AI model of CEO Dara Khosrowshahi to screen proposals before meetings. The industry refers to this trend as "The Great Flattening," and it is predicted that unicorn companies fully operated by AI may emerge in the future.
