<p>In a surprising twist, Google users worldwide have shown a notable shift in their online interests, favoring searches related to artificial intelligence<a href="https://www.cryptopolitan.com/ai-growing-impact-elections-raises-concerns/"> (AI)</a> over the once-dominant topics of “Bitcoin” and “crypto.” According to data from Google Trends, this seismic shift began around August 2022 and has only continued to grow since then.&nbsp;</p> 
<p>The launch of OpenAI’s ChatGPT in November of that year seems to have played a pivotal role in this trend, as searches for “AI” surged in the same month, significantly widening the gap between AI and cryptocurrency-related search terms.</p>

<p>Google’s data<a href="https://twitter.com/AutismCapital/status/1739466799106937098" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank"> reveals </a>that worldwide search interest in “AI” currently boasts a Google Trends score of 91, while “Bitcoin” lags behind with a score of 22. Google assigns these scores based on a topic’s proportion to total searches across all topics, indicating the relative popularity of these search terms.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The shift in user interest might not surprise, given Bitcoin’s tumultuous journey in recent years. Bitcoin, which experienced a historic bull run in 2021, reaching an all-time high of $68,729 on November 11, 2021, had faced the challenges of a bear market cycle throughout the latter half of 2021 and most of 2022.&nbsp;</p> 
<p>However, it began to regain lost ground in 2023, with its price surging from $16,900 at the start of the year to approximately $43,400 at the time of writing, according to CoinMarketCap data.</p> 
<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="global-interest-in-crypto-and-ai">Global interest in crypto and AI</h2> 
<p>Google Trends data also highlights that Bitcoin garnered the most user interest in countries such as El Salvador, Nigeria, the Netherlands, Brazil, and Switzerland. </p> 
<p>On the other hand, artificial intelligence saw a remarkable year of developments, including concerns about AI potentially displacing jobs, the emergence of AI-generated content, and excitement surrounding new chatbots like ChatGPT, Google Bard, Meta AI, and GrokAI, the latter of which was launched by tech mogul Elon Musk.</p> 
<p>Particular regions that displayed a heightened interest in AI include Vietnam, China, the Philippines, and Myanmar. The growing fascination with AI coincided with various technological advancements and innovations in the field.</p> 
<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="exploring-the-phenomenon">Exploring the phenomenon</h2> 
<p>One possible explanation for the shift in search trends is that Bitcoin and crypto have been subjects of interest for a more extended period compared to AI. </p> 
<p>As a result, users may have already conducted extensive searches on crypto-related terms in previous years. In contrast, the continuous development and application of AI have driven more recent curiosity and exploration in this field.</p> 
<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="ai-dominates-job-market-searches">AI dominates job market searches</h2> 
<p>In addition to dominating search trends, AI has also made a significant impact on the job market. In July, an analysis by crypto data aggregator CoinGecko revealed that the launch of ChatGPT in November 2022 led to a surge in searches for “AI jobs.” These searches outpaced those for “crypto jobs” by a staggering four-fold.&nbsp;</p> 
<p>This highlights the increasing interest in career opportunities related to AI and the potential career prospects offered by advancements in artificial intelligence.</p>
