China and India have the highest international student numbers in Australia, with 189,282 and 139,038 students respectively, highlighting the country’s popularity as a higher education destination among Asian countries. However, [visa processing delays](https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2024/dec/19/labor-australia-foreign-student-visa-cap-plan-new-policy-processing?ref=newsletters.qs.com) and the implementation of [new visa fees](https://www.studyaustralia.gov.au/en/plan-your-move/your-guide-to-visas/student-visa-subclass-500?ref=newsletters.qs.com), are likely to deter prospective international students. The Australian government's recent measures, such as the proposed[ cap on foreign student visas](https://www.nytimes.com/2025/04/27/world/australia/international-students-caps.html?ref=newsletters.qs.com), aim to manage the intake, potentially impacting future enrolment figures.

The global share of new electric car sales reached 22% in 2024, with Norway leading at 92% and China at 48%. Auto-making leaders like the[ US and UK are slower to adopt EVs](https://newsroom.aaa.com/2025/06/aaa-ev-survey/?ref=newsletters.qs.com), whereas nations like Norway are targeting 100% electric car sales by 2025\. [China's dominance in EV production](https://www.technologyreview.com/2023/02/21/1068880/how-did-china-dominate-electric-cars-policy/?ref=newsletters.qs.com), driven by supportive government policies and affordable models, exemplifies how national strategies can accelerate EV adoption. To further this, the [Norwegian EV Policy,](https://elbil.no/english/norwegian-ev-policy/?ref=newsletters.qs.com) implemented by the Norwegian government, aims to achieve full electrification in new car sales by 2025.

## 🤖 India and the UAE Lead in AI Adoption

Global AI deployment averages 42%, with India leading at 59% and China at 50%, while France lags at 26%. This highlights a global trend towards automating and streamlining business processes, with the rise of [multimodal AI models](https://www.apptunix.com/blog/multimodal-ai-working-benefits-use-cases/?ref=newsletters.qs.com). The integration of AI is also prompting the creation of [usage benchmarks,](https://www.mckinsey.com/capabilities/mckinsey-digital/our-insights/superagency-in-the-workplace-empowering-people-to-unlock-ais-full-potential-at-work?ref=newsletters.qs.com#/) to ensure the responsible usage of generative content.
