Introduction

The idea for this project came to me when I was working as a research assistant intern at the East African Trading House plc. We were collecting data from local shops. With population information being scarce, we were told to sample from clusters using the administrative sub-city classifications of Addis Ababa. About 100 samples were going to be taken from each sub-city.

🎬 How It All Started

We’re a group of Statistics students who got curious: how much do our classmates really lean on AI tools like ChatGPT? We used this idea as a spring board for our end of year research project. We built a survey, crunched some numbers, and wrote up the results. The data are eye‑opening, the trends are interestingl, and (as we’ll happily admit) the sampling isn’t perfect.
