🌍AI Usage Is Globally Uneven? The Great AI Divide.

Anthropic recently explored how AI is transforming the global economy, raising concerns that AI-driven economic growth may deepen regional inequality.

Key Details:

• The U.S. leads global usage of Claude at 21.6%, followed by India at 7.2%, Brazil at 3.7%, Japan at 3.7%, and South Korea at 3.7%.

• There’s also a strong positive correlation between GDP Per Capita and AI usage. For instance, a 1% increase in GDP Per Capita is associated with approximately a 0.7% increase in Claude usage.

• These findings suggest that wealthier countries are more likely to adopt AI-powered tools because they can heavily invest in digital literacy, enabling citizens to effectively access, understand, and utilize these technologies.

Why It’s Important:

• If the productivity gains are larger for high-adoption economies, current AI usage patterns suggest that the benefits of AI advancements will disproportionately accrue to already-rich regions.

• This matters because it could possibly further increase worldwide economic inequality, reversing the global growth convergence observed in recent decades.

🛒The AI Commerce Revolution Has Begun

Google just announced “Agent Payments Protocol (AP2),” which enables AI Agents to securely make financial transactions across the internet on your behalf.

Key Details:

• For decades, the way we’ve used browsers has followed the same predictable pattern: search, click, skim, repeat. It’s familiar, but it’s also due for an upgrade.

• As AI continues to transform how we work, learn, and create, it’s finally reshaping how we browse. We’re no longer just surfing the web. We’re navigating it through AI Agents.

• AI Agents are beginning to change how we interact with the internet by acting on our behalf. They can autonomously operate across websites to browse, book, or buy without us lifting a finger.

• Right now, when you purchase a product online, the digital payment authentication framework assumes you’re the one clicking the “buy now” button. AI Agents break this fundamental assumption. How do we know if an AI Agent received your permission to make a particular purchase?

• AP2 uses tamper-proof, cryptographically-signed digital contracts to securely authenticate, validate, and convey an AI Agent’s authority to transact on your behalf.

Why It’s Important:

• AI Agents will require a complete rethinking of how everything’s structured and accessed on the internet. While humans navigate websites visually, AI Agents navigate them structurally. In other words, we read pixels; they read code.

• We’re experiencing a digital shift from asking, “What can I search for?” to “What can my browser do for me?” This evolutionary change signals a move away from manual navigation toward more intelligent delegation.

PROMPT ENGINEERING TIPS

⚙️Make Better Decisions Faster!

When we talk about improving how we make decisions, we usually run into two key challenges:

1. 🔵 Challenge #1: Which inputs actually matter.

2. 🟣 Challenge #2: Which outputs actually drive outcomes.

3. 🔢 The Formula: Smart Inputs + Effective Outputs = Better Decisions

For example, imagine you’re developing a training program to prepare for a marathon. The input would be your current fitness level. Given this input, the output would be a personalized training schedule with tailored resting periods to prevent injuries.

By focusing on the right inputs that yield optimal outputs, you can make informed decisions that drive real results.

This simple prompt turns ChatGPT into your personal decision-making coach:

• Context: I want to make clear, confident, and calculated decisions,

• Clarity: but I often struggle to identify the key variables and accurately assess the potential risks of my choices.

• Guidance: Can you help me analyze {Insert Specific Scenario} to make the most effective decision possible, optimizing for {Insert Primary Goal}?
