Overview / Rankings

Rank, filter and compare the AI economy across geographies (countries, cities, US states), industries, and occupations. Tick rows (or map items) to compare and export a report.

All 50 countries, ranked. Cognitive Power is the total size of a country's AI strength; per-capita is how strong it is per person. Click column tops to sort, or tick countries (or dots on the map) to compare.Comparative standing across 50 economies. Cognitive Power (CPI) is the primary, absolute-capacity ranking; CC is the per-capita lens. Sort any column, or tick countries (or click them on the map) to compare them.Cross-sectional ranking of 50 economies on the headline composite indices. CPI (absolute capacity) is primary; CC is the per-capita intensity analogue. Columns are independently sortable; multi-select (table or choropleth) routes to the comparison view.

CPI (Cognitive Power) is the main scoreboard — the TOTAL AI strength of a country. It adds up the things that make a country strong at AI: money put into AI, computing power, top AI models, and robots. The US and China are way ahead of everyone — 93.6 and 91.9 — because they spend hundreds of billions on AI and lead in computers, models and robots, while #3 (63.8) is far behind. The other score, CC, is strength per person — so because China has so many people it sits #6 on CC even though it is #2 on CPI. Click a column to switch the view.Cognitive Power (CPI) is the headline ranking — absolute national capacity. It weights what actually drives frontier power: AI capital mobilized, compute, frontier models, and robotics/automation, plus total research output. The US and China are in a class of their own — 93.6 and 91.9 — because they each mobilize hundreds of billions in AI capital and lead the world in compute, models and robots, while #3 (63.8) is far behind. The second lens, CC (Cognitive Coefficient), is per-capita intensity (HDI-style) — it rewards depth per person, so populous China sits #6 on CC even though it is #2 on CPI. Sort by either column to switch lens.CPI (Cognitive Power) is the primary lens — absolute national capacity. A weighted, log-normalized aggregate of absolute mass: AI capital mobilized, compute, frontier-model output, robotics/automation stock, plus total research output. The US and China form a duopoly — 93.6 and 91.9 — leading on capital, compute, models and robotics; #3 (63.8) trails materially. CC (Cognitive Coefficient) is the per-capita intensity analogue (HDI-style): population-normalized, so China sits #6 on CC versus #2 on CPI. Columns are independently sortable to switch lens.
