AI is revolutionizing the world as we know it, with its impact just beginning to unfold. Curious about the global adoption rate, I consulted ChatGPT to discover that we're still ahead of 90%!
Here is what ChatGPT said: As of May 2025, ChatGPT has approximately 800 million weekly active users worldwide, reflecting a significant increase from 400 million in February 2025. Given the global population of about 8 billion, this means that roughly 10% of the world’s population uses ChatGPT on a weekly basis. In the United States, ChatGPT maintains a strong presence with an estimated 77.2 million monthly active users. Additionally, South Korea has emerged as a significant market, boasting the highest number of paid ChatGPT subscribers outside the U.S., prompting OpenAI to establish a new office in Seoul. These figures underscore ChatGPT’s rapid adoption and its expanding role in global digital interactions.
The sheer volume of data generated every second is staggering: 2.5 million GB created per second, around 350,000 tweets per minute, and over 500 hours of video uploaded per minute. The data explosion is exponential!Let's embark on a learning journey together to harness the power of these evolving tools.
