The Top Trending Hashtags of AI Action Summit 2025

The online conversation around the AI Action Summit was shaped by the key theme of #AI, highlighting the event's central focus on artificial intelligence. Discussions also extended to #AIForAll and #AIForGood, underscoring the ethical and societal implications of AI technology. Political figures played a major role in shaping the debate, with #JDVance #NarendraModi, and #EmmanuelMacron trending as discussions around international AI collaboration gained traction. This was no doubt influenced by another key moment - U.S. Senator J.D. Vance's speech, which sparked online and offline discussion, as he addressed AI regulation and its impact on the global economy. Additionally, location-based hashtags such as #Paris and #France reflected the summit's global significance.

A decline in TikTok engagement compared with CES 2025 in January

Instagram led engagement for the AI Action Summit 2025, with 916,754 likes, making it the most interactive platform for discussions around the event. YouTube followed with 304,437 likes, while Facebook garnered 179,394 reactions. X (formerly Twitter) saw 124,795 retweets, LinkedIn recorded 98,562 reactions, and TikTok had 44,656 likes. Interestingly, Threads also contributed with 20,327 likes.

The most striking insight here is the relatively low engagement on TikTok. While TikTok played a major role in driving conversations for events like CES in Los Angeles, it saw significantly less traction for the AI Action Summit in Paris. This suggests that the event’s audience may have skewed towards more professional and policy-driven platforms, or that AI-focused discussions resonated more strongly on traditional social networks rather than short-form video content. It may also reflect fall-out after the recent ban of TikTok in the United States.

The AI Action Summit 2025 generated significant online discussion, with engagement levels highlighting the platforms where industry conversations thrived. While Instagram led in total interactions, LinkedIn played a crucial role in fostering professional discussions, reinforcing its importance for companies looking to establish thought leadership.
