Microsoft AI Economy Institute, AI Diffusion Report (MIT License). The share of working-age people who used a generative AI product in the period, estimated from Microsoft telemetry adjusted for device market share, internet use and population; the method is in Microsoft’s AI Diffusion technical paper. Not a survey or an official statistic. Ranks the economies with a figure of their own; groups of economies that share one figure in Microsoft’s file are left out. The chart draws the highest and lowest; the data table lists them all.

The share of working-age people using generative AI in each economy, at Microsoft’s latest estimate, ranked from highest to lowest.
