India is OpenAI's second-largest market with 100M+ weekly users, and young adults drive 80% of ChatGPT messages.
Deep Dive
OpenAI revealed that nearly 50% of ChatGPT usage in India comes from users aged 18-24, with those under 30 accounting for 80%. Indians use ChatGPT for work 35% of the time (vs 30% globally) and ask three times as many coding-related questions as the global median. The company's Codex assistant sees 3x higher usage in India, with weekly usage quadrupling since the Mac app launch two weeks ago.
Why It Matters
India's massive, tech-savvy youth population is shaping global AI adoption patterns, particularly for coding and professional tasks.
