India's use of ChatGPT for technical tasks nearly 4x global average: OpenAI

OpenAI says India's use of ChatGPT for technical tasks is nearly four times the global average, with Codex adoption also strong, as it launches the Signals initiative to track AI usage

OpenAI on Friday said India’s use of ChatGPT for technical tasks is nearly four times the global average, while the use of its agentic coding application, Codex, is almost three times the global average. Users in India also ask more coding and learning- related questions than most markets, the company said. 

“AI adoption is moving faster than our ability to measure it — and that’s a challenge for anyone trying to make smart decisions. Signals is our way of putting real-world evidence on the table, so India’s AI debate can be grounded in facts, not hype,” said Ronnie Chatterji, chief economist, OpenAI. 

 

The data was released under OpenAI’s new initiative, Signals, a public data programme that will publish recurring, privacy- preserving indiactors and de-identified datasets on how ChatGPT is being adopted and used across regions, age groups, and task categories.
