OpenAI: ChatGPT’s weekly users have grown to 200 million

OpenAI said on Thursday its chatbot ChatGPT now has more than 200 million weekly active users, double the number it had in the last autumn.

ChatGPT, launched in 2022, can generate human-like responses based on user prompts and had 100 million weekly active users, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman had said in November.

OpenAI said 92% of Fortune 500 companies are using its products and the use of its automated Application Programming Interface, or API, which allows software programs to talk to each other, has doubled since the launch of ChatGPT-4o mini in July.

Media reports said Apple and Nvidia are in talks to invest in OpenAI as part of a new fundraising round that would value the ChatGPT maker above $100 billion. OpenAI-backer Microsoft is also expected to invest in the firm, according to the reports.

MacDailyNews Take: When Apple Intelligence with ChatGPT hits the public in Macs, iPads, and iPhones, 200 million will be a rounding error.
