AI Usage Surges Among Urban Indians
A recent survey shows that many people in cities across India use artificial intelligence (AI) every day to find information.
About 60% of people use AI at least once a day, with younger people using it more often than older people.
Even though AI is popular, many people still check other sources before using AI.
Some use AI first, while others use it along with other sources.
This shows that AI is becoming an important tool, but people still rely on traditional methods too.
60% of urban Indians use AI daily for information, with Gen Z leading at 67%.
Only 27% use AI as their primary source, while 36% use it after other sources.
AI usage decreases with age, with Gen X at 52% and baby boomers at 30%.
26% of respondents use AI alongside other information sources.
The survey highlights AI's growing role while noting continued reliance on traditional methods.
