Abstract-The rapid development of Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology for artificial intelligence has become a comprehensive topic of social debate, especially in many social media nowadays. The purpose of this study is to analyze public sentiment about AI using tweet data collected through scraping comment data. A total of seven data records using AI-related keywords such as chatgpt, openai, and deepseek were processed along with NLP (natural language processing) technology. Before processing, it included text cleaning, lemmatization, and removing stop words. Mood analysis was performed using the Vader algorithm. The results showed that 47% of tweets were positive, 32% were neutral, and 21% were negative. The data visualization also shows the most frequently used words in AI-related discussions and the most active users. This study includes a general explanation of public perception of AI, opening up opportunities for further studies on the dynamics of public discourse in the digital age.
