## How to read it

- Ipsos global country average, AI Monitor 2024 and 2025\. Ipsos rounds most answers to whole percentages, so totals may not add to exactly 100%.
- The data file holds two questions with no column to tell them apart: rows 1–8 are ‘AI will change how you do your current job’ (2025, then 2024) and rows 9–16 ‘AI will replace your current job’. The chart shows the first question for 2025; the other values here are read from the file by row.
