Why this matters now
AI adoption has become a major economic and social topic. This page distinguishes broad population usage from AI investment, model development or national preparedness.
The ranking uses the latest available country-level observations from Microsoft AI Economy Institute, AI Diffusion Report 2025. The measure is derived from aggregated and anonymized Microsoft telemetry and adjusted for OS/device market share, internet penetration and population. Because publication schedules differ by country, the latest year can vary across the table.
