Sam Altman says ChatGPT now has 500M weekly active users, but Chris Anderson let it slip that usage has doubled in just a few weeks. Whoops.

Joe Biden said the quiet part out loud: they want to lock Trump up and throw away the key.

6% of the worlds population.. not bad

He did quote something like "10% of the world now uses it a lot" in another part of the conversation.

That was a scary moment for a second wtf

Usage and active users are different things. You can have 500M active users using, on average, 1 hour of ChatGPT per day a few weeks back and now those same 500M users can be using ChatGPT, on average, 2 hours per day since it has become more useful and fun to use.

Some of that was likely the Ghibli craze. Some of those will play around for a month and then fade. But the trend line will keep going up as their products get better. It also feels like they will become like a Yahoo! with users subscribing for many different reasons and uses.

Needs media training. That anger shouldn’t ever be visible to the audience. Needs to learn how to master a situation like this without his face showing how he feels. This created dead air time and awkwardness. He should also know that what he said privately is never truly private unless he said off the record.

expect the geometric growth to continue then in a short duration the users become the used first ai is a toy then tool then food then oxygen then the substrate of reality then the black hole that eats it up nom nom

lol 😂😂

gpt running the streets too

500M dead bots

If hype was results, we'd have so-called ASI already.

for cheating in school

Sam was really annoyed by most of his questions

Number of users is a separate metric from usage.... 5 users 1 prompt not much usage, 5 users 100 prompts is a different story...
