Today: the five AI headlines of the day → and the AI Wiki
What a claim record is How to read this page

One statement, bounded on purpose

The headline is a single claim that a named source supports. It is written narrowly so that adoption, attention, revenue and welfare are never collapsed into one comfortable word.

The three sections below the fold

What this does not establish is the boundary of the evidence. Counterevidence & uncertainty is what argues the other way. What would change the reading is the observation that would move it. A record missing any of the three is incomplete, not merely brief.

Primary routes are checkable

Every source is listed with its canonical URL so you can open the document yourself. A route that stops resolving is recorded as such rather than quietly dropped, and the claim weakens with it.

MWITA-CC-2026-021 · Evidence A · P1

Statistics South Africa's 2025 General Household Survey reported 85.6% of households had some internet access, but home internet access was 33.5% in metropolitan areas and 2.7% in rural areas; single-person households were 26.6% of households.

Counterevidence & uncertainty

Any internet access and access at home are different measures; household access does not imply individual use, quality, affordability or digital skill.

What would change the reading

Update with the next GHS and comparable quality/affordability indicators.
