2023 was a big year for Microsoft Edge. This was the browser that first made AI popular and provided a simple way to access it. It has been exclusive for some time which has led to many people discovering this suggestion.
As 2023 comes to a close, the software giant has compiled some interesting statistics and data. This clearly reflects what the year has been like for Edge and how it has helped users navigate the internet.

- Users have created more than 1.8 billion AI-generated images, which is 1,800 times more than the entire collection of the Louvre and Metropolitan Museums combined!
- Edge has stopped more than 127 million phishing attacks. This is equivalent to four phishing attacks stopped every second for an entire year.
- Being a good browser for shopping, it also saved users money... a lot of money. US Edge users found an average annual savings of $400, and buyers worldwide were offered over $4 billion in Edge savings.
- Users have played nearly 9,000 years of free-to-play casual games. More than 4.7 billion minutes have been played on Microsoft Edge since the feature launched.
- In fact, the number of people playing Surf Edge each day was greater than the population of Huntington Beach, California, the original “surf town.”
- Finally, players earned 148 million Edge Reward Points – enough to pay for 1,000 years of Xbox Game Pass Ultimate!
