OpenAI's ChatGPT surpasses 1 billion users

OpenAI said ChatGPT has surpassed 1 billion active users and 2 million enterprise customers.

The milestone, reached in 3 years and 8 months after launch, highlights the rapid mainstream adoption of generative AI.

Growth has recently slowed amid intensifying competition, and OpenAI is responding with lower prices plus new models and tools.

The battle with Google and Anthropic will help determine the next phase of competition and investment across the AI market.
