San Francisco, 31 August 2024 (TDI): OpenAI, an AI startup, reported on Thursday that ChatGPT, its chatbot, now has over 200 million active weekly users, double the number it had during the previous fall season.
OpenAI CEO Sam Altman stated in November that ChatGPT, which will launch in 2022, has 100 million weekly active users and can produce human-like responses in response to user queries.
Since the release of ChatGPT-4o small in July, the use of OpenAI’s automated Application Programming Interface (API)—which enables software applications to communicate with one another—has increased, with the company reporting that 92% of Fortune 500 businesses use its products.
The business hopes to reach a wider consumer base by lowering the cost and energy consumption of their technology through the use of GPT-4o mini, a little AI model.
The popularity of AI and the sharp increase in OpenAI’s valuation, based in San Francisco, have been driven by ChatGPT.

The US Artificial Intelligence Safety Institute stated earlier in the day that OpenAI and Anthropic, two AI businesses, had separately inked agreements with the US government for the study, testing, and assessment of their AI models.
Media reports claimed that as part of a fresh investment round that would value the ChatGPT manufacturer beyond $100 billion, Apple Tab and Nvidia are in talks to invest in OpenAI.
