India Leads Global AI Adoption with 65 Percent Usage: Microsoft Survey
A Microsoft study reveals that 65 percent of Indians surveyed have used artificial intelligence (AI) in the past three months, a significant rise from 26 percent in 2023. This figure is more than twice the global average, highlighting the rapid adoption of AI in India. On Tuesday, Microsoft unveiled the Global Online Safety Survey 2025, which studies the growing influence of AI. The report is based on a web survey of over 14,800 parents of children aged 6-17, teens, and adults, conducted in 15 countries between July 19 and August 9, 2024.

India, Singapore, South Africa, and Brazil, followed by the United States, had the highest number of Generative AI users, reflecting the increasing adoption of Generative AI.

“Sixty-five percent of respondents have used AI in the past three months (+26 percent from 2023). This is more than double the global average of 31 percent (+11 percent from 2023) over the same period.
