Digital divide

What if you are working on a project and can use AI to achieve faster and more creative results? Sounds like a great opportunity, right?

AI is rapidly gaining popularity, especially among young people. Recent data shows that 42% of 18 to 24-year-olds use AI applications on a monthly basis. Among students, that percentage is even higher, at 49%. For many young people, AI is a powerful tool to work more efficiently during their studies. It is no surprise that 69% of young people use generative AI for their education. For them, AI is often a stepping stone to success.

Unfortunately, not everyone has the same opportunities. Some students do not have access to the right technology or do not know how to use AI effectively. Paid versions of AI applications are often more advanced and offer better features than free versions. Not everyone has access to the same tools. This creates a digital divide between those who have the technology and skills to use it effectively, and those who do not. Young people who struggle to keep up with fast technological changes may feel left out because of this.
