Kenya has emerged as the world leader in using the ChatGPT AI bot developed by the American company OpenAI, according to a study by Datareportal.
In the East African republic, 42.1 percent of adult users out of the total number of citizens with Internet access have used the electronic assistant’s services in the past month. Following Kenya in the list of countries using ChatGPT are the UAE, Israel, Malaysia, Brazil, and India.
The global average for this indicator is 22.3 percent. In countries such as Germany, the US, Britain, Russia, China, and Japan, users resort to ChatGPT support to a significantly lesser extent. It is noted that men use the chatbot approximately 20 percent more often than women.
According to experts, Kenya’s leadership in this area is due to the presence of a mentality among local youth that is focused on innovative technologies, the popularity of an economic model based on freelancing and free earnings, and the growth of small businesses.
