AI startup OpenAI.
OpenAI announced on Thursday that its chatbot, ChatGPT, has surpassed 200 million weekly active users, a figure that has doubled since last fall.
Launched in 2022, ChatGPT is capable of generating human-like replies based on user input and had reached 100 million weekly active users, according to OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, who made this statement in November.
OpenAI reported that 92 percent of Fortune 500 companies are utilising its products, and the adoption of its automated Application Programming Interface (API), which enables communication between software programs, has doubled since the introduction of ChatGPT-4o mini in July.
The GPT-4o mini is an affordable and energy-efficient AI model, designed to broaden the startup's customer base.
ChatGPT has significantly boosted the popularity of AI and contributed to a rapid increase in the valuation of San Francisco-based OpenAI.
Additionally, OpenAI and Anthropic have entered agreements with the U.S. government for the research, testing, and assessment of their AI models, as stated earlier by the U.S. Artificial Intelligence Safety Institute.
Reports indicate that Apple and Nvidia are negotiating to invest in OpenAI as part of a new funding round that could value the company at over $100 billion.
