OpenAI said ChatGPT has more than 200 million weekly active users, doubling the 100 million last November.
The company’s spokesperson, Taya Christianson, confirmed the number and added that the API usage has doubled following the release of the cheaper model GPT-4o Mini.
She also said that 92% of Fortune 500 companies use its products.
“People are using our tools now as a part of their daily lives, making a real difference in areas like healthcare and education—whether it’s helping with routine tasks, solving hard problems, or unlocking creativity,” CEO Sam Altman said in a statement to Axios.
On the other hand, this week, Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg revealed that the company’s AI assistant has reached over 400 million monthly active users and 185 million weekly active users — despite not rolling out in the UK, Brazil, or EU yet.
The adoption of its open-source Llama models has also grown sharply. With the release of Llama 3.1 in May and July of this year, usage at the major cloud service providers doubled.
Meta pointed to a handful of large enterprises using the Llama models, such as Japanese bank Nomura Holdings, food delivery service DoorDash, and professional services provider Accenture.
