Which states are adopting ChatGPT the fastest? You might be surprised.
OpenAI, the maker of the AI chatbot, released a report on Tuesday on ChatGPT's impact on the economy and worker productivity. Among its key findings was a map showing the 15 states adopting ChatGPT the fastest.
An OpenAI spokesperson said the states' ranking was determined based on growth relative to existing users. It drew on data for weekly active users as of July 15, relative to weekly active users three months prior, in April.
The states, in order, are:
- Virginia
- Nebraska
- Nevada
- Alabama
- Vermont
- Kansas
- New York
- Delaware
- Maryland
- Rhode Island
- Washington
- Kentucky
- Georgia
- Montana
- Alaska
The report also puts in perspective the sheer volume of messages ChatGPT fields each day
According to the report, more than half a billion people worldwide use OpenAI's AI products, including ChatGPT, sending more than 2.5 billion messages to the platform per day. Of those messages, more than 330 million come from the US.
ChatGPT had a meteoric launch. After it debuted in November 2022, it racked up its first million users in under a week and hit the 100 million milestone in two months.
OpenAI has since launched several other models.
