ChatGPT, OpenAI's chatbot, has reached 200 million weekly active users. This is twice as many as when the company last announced its results in November 2023. This is reported by Enagdet.
A company representative also confirmed in a comment to the media that API usage has also doubled since July. Among other things, the July release of the smaller GPT-4o language model contributed to this.
In addition to the significant increase in ChatGPT users, OpenAI also reports a doubling of revenues compared to last year. Sam Altman, the company's CEO, told employees this summer that annualized revenue, which takes monthly revenue and stretches it out over a year, reached $3.4 billion. At the end of 2023, the company reported $1.6 billion in revenue.
A little earlier, it was also reported that Apple and NVIDIA are in talks to invest in OpenAI in a new round of funding. The new series of investments may result in the ChatGPT producer being valued at more than $100 billion.
