In 2023, artificial intelligence (AI) skills in India were 2.75 more frequent than the global average, making it a global leader in AI skills. The United States of America and Germany followed, with about 2.22 and 1.9 relative AI skill penetration rates, respectively.
Relative penetration rate of artificial intelligence (AI) skills from 2015 to 2023 worldwide, by region
The source adds: "To allow for skills penetration comparisons across countries, the skills genomes are calculated and a relevant benchmark is selected (e.g., global average). A ratio is then constructed between a country’s and the benchmark’s AI skills penetrations, controlling for occupations."
