Kenya Tops Global Rankings for ChatGPT Usage

Kenya has emerged as the world's leading user of ChatGPT, surpassing tech powerhouses such as the United States, Japan, and China, according to the July 2025 Global Digital Report by DataReportal and Meltwater. 









This milestone highlights Kenya’s rapid ascent as a digital innovator and showcases Africa’s growing appetite for cutting-edge artificial intelligence tools.

Key Findings

  • Highest Usage Rate:

    42.1% of Kenyan internet users aged 16 and above reported using ChatGPT in the past month, the highest proportion globally. Kenya edged out the United Arab Emirates (42%) and Israel (41.4%), countries renowned for their advanced digital economies.

  • Global Leadership:
    The report also notes Kenya ranked third in total ChatGPT website traffic, contributing 4.81% of global visits, behind only the U.S. and India, both far larger in population and internet base

  • African Leadership:
    Other African nations showed strong engagement, South Africa (34.3%), Egypt, and Nigeria also made the top 20, reinforcing Africa’s rising role in the global AI conversation

Why Is Kenya Leading the World in ChatGPT Use?

Kenya’s front-runner status in AI and ChatGPT adoption can be attributed to several factors:

  • Young, Tech-Savvy Population:
    Kenya’s median age is just 20, making it one of the world’s youngest nations. Young Kenyans are especially keen on technology for education, business, and content creation. This demographic is quick to experiment with new digital tools.

  • Mobile Internet Penetration:
    With over 48% of the population regularly using mobile internet, access to AI tools like ChatGPT is widespread, even in semi-urban and rural areas.

  • Education and Freelance Economy:
    Many Kenyans use ChatGPT for learning, research, coding, and content creation—a trend fueled by the growing freelance and gig economy.

  • Innovation Culture:
    The “Silicon Savannah” reputation underscores Kenya’s vibrant startup scene and openness to digital innovation. The high rate of social media usage (averaging 3 hours and 43 minutes daily, well above the global average) supports a culture of digital curiosity and rapid technology adoption.

  • Accessibility:
    The effectiveness and free access to advanced AI solutions like ChatGPT reduce barriers for SMEs, students, and entrepreneurs, enabling productivity and knowledge sharing at scale.

The Global Context

Kenya’s achievement stands out particularly when compared to traditionally tech-centric nations:

  • Japan: 5.8%

  • China: 7.3%

  • Russia: 10.8%

  • US and India: While they lead in absolute user numbers, their usage share per capita is much lower.

These shifts show that digital innovation is no longer confined to Western or Asian tech giants, emerging markets, especially in Africa, are now shaping the next phase of global AI adoption.

What’s Next for Kenya and Africa?

As digital adoption accelerates, experts suggest the next steps should include:

  • Investing in AI upskilling for youth and professionals.

  • Supporting local AI startups and entrepreneurs.

  • Developing policies to bridge digital divides and ensure equitable access to AI technology.

Kenya’s rise to the top of global ChatGPT usage marks a new chapter in Africa’s digital journey, transforming how people learn, work, and create in the AI era.
