Different tasks, different results. These studies are outside the country ranking.
16 experienced open-source developers; 246 issues in repositories they knew.
Early 2025 experiment · published July 2025
This setting does not represent all developers or current tools. METR’s February 2026 follow-up identifies selection effects and redesigns the study; do not extrapolate this effect to countries.

Effects vary by experience and skill. A company-specific productivity result is not measured national output or realized net savings.

First edition: openly licensed country AI estimates, official AI and social-use surveys, and scoped productivity studies. Later editions record additions and revisions here.
Adoption describes reach. Attention requires compatible time measurement. Economic benefit requires evidence about completed work and all-in costs.
No comparable monthly country attention, platform audience or realized net-benefit feed is connected. Country coverage and survey populations differ across sources.
Downloads preserve the active region/search, metric, source, period and release. Missing values stay empty.
Quarterly review: 1 January, 1 April, 1 July and 1 October at 08:00 Europe/Zurich, starting 1 October 2026. New editions retain native observation dates; a review does not imply new data from every source.
Countries and economies follow source reporting conventions; boundaries and listings imply no position on sovereignty. Missing polygons remain accessible through country search and the table. AI estimates, surveys and studies are separate evidence. No universal impact score is calculated.
