38% with mobile broadband don't use internet due to low digital literacy, risking a $3.5T AI-era economic gap by 2030.

A new report by GSMA Intelligence and Huawei reveals that over a third of people with mobile broadband access (38%) do not use the internet, mainly due to low digital literacy. This digital divide affects 3.1 billion people and could cost the global economy $3.5 trillion by 2030 if not addressed, especially in low and middle-income countries. The report highlights AI's dual role in improving access but also raising risks like data privacy and misinformation. Initiatives like Huawei's solar-powered DigiTruck mobile classrooms help bridge this gap by providing hands-on digital and AI literacy training in underserved areas. Policymakers are urged to prioritize AI literacy, online safety, and inclusive digital education to ensure no one is left behind in the AI economy transition.

The digital literacy gap and its economic impact provide context for technology sector performance. For readers following Technology-sector US stocks on Pluang, here is the market snapshot as of Sep 14, 2026 21:31 WIB: out of 150 stocks, 80 rose and 67 fell.
