CNN's chief data analyst Harry Enten expressed his shock at how difficult it's becoming to tell the difference between reality and artificial intelligence during a segment Wednesday.

Anchor Boris Sanchez began, "Harry, obviously, we're still in the very early stages of A.I. I just want to make sure — are you A.I. right now? Were you generated by artificial intelligence?"

"You stole my line!" Enten exclaimed. "I was going to ask you, am I real? Oh, my God, I hope so! I hope you're real, too."

Enten then got to the numbers to show how Americans were feeling about the advancing technology.

"I got to say, Americans are kind of skeptical of it," Enten said, revealing that while 38% of American believe A.I. is a good thing, 44% "say it will do more harm than good. That's the plurality there," he declared.

Enten said there was a "huge divide by education and by income" when it comes to trusting A.I.

"Just 26% of those who make less than $50,000 think it will be good," Enten said. "Then...look at that at 200-K-plus: the vast majority of those Americans think A.I. will do more good than harm. But when you go down to the bottom of that income bracket, there is a lot of skepticism of A.I. I think there are a lot of folks who might be worried that A.I. might take their jobs."

Enten concluded, "There is one thing that pretty much all Americans can agree on, Boris, and it's not just that I am real; it is this: should the government regulate A.I. more? Look at this — 69% of Americans say, 'Yes.' That is true across every single demographic group, where a majority of Americans agree that the government should do more to regulate A.I., and then we can once again ensure that Harry Joseph Strasburg Enten is a real human being with real friends like Boris Sanchez."
