The ChatGPT Frenzy: OpenAI Reports 200 Million Weekly Users

OpenAI says ChatGPT's weekly users have grown to 200 million

AI startup OpenAI announced on Thursday that its chatbot ChatGPT has surpassed 200 million weekly active users, marking a significant increase from the previous fall season. Launched in 2022, ChatGPT is designed to generate human-like responses based on user inputs. OpenAI CEO Sam Altman had previously reported 100 million weekly active users in November, indicating a doubling of users since then.

Fortune 500 Companies Embracing OpenAI

OpenAI disclosed that 92% of Fortune 500 companies are leveraging its products. The adoption of its automated Application Programming Interface (API) has also seen substantial growth, doubling since the introduction of ChatGPT-4o mini in July. This compact AI model aims to provide cost-efficient and energy-saving solutions, making OpenAI's technology more accessible to a wider range of customers.

Expansion and Partnerships

The popularity of ChatGPT has significantly contributed to the increased interest in AI and has led to a remarkable surge in OpenAI's valuation. Additionally, OpenAI and Anthropic have secured agreements with the U.S. government for collaborative research, testing, and evaluation of their AI models, as reported by the U.S. Artificial Intelligence Safety Institute.

Notable companies such as Apple and Nvidia are reportedly in discussions to invest in OpenAI as part of a new fundraising round that could value the ChatGPT platform at over $100 billion. Microsoft, a key supporter of OpenAI, is also anticipated to increase its investment in the company.
