ChatGPT Hits 1.2 Billion Weekly Users
OpenAI has announced that ChatGPT now reaches 1.2 billion people every week, according to figures shared at DevDay and reported by The Decoder. The platform’s rapid expansion is driven by enterprise sales, the growth of the Codex coding assistant, and increasing competition in the generative artificial intelligence market. Alongside these figures, OpenAI’s annualized revenue rate is nearing $70 billion, marking a significant increase since the start of the third quarter.
During the event, the company also reported more than 35 million weekly users for ChatGPT Work and Codex, alongside 2.5 million businesses utilizing OpenAI products. This growth comes as major artificial intelligence firms engage in aggressive pricing strategies and roll out advanced model families to capture broader commercial and creative market share. Industry observers note that while user adoption and revenue continue to climb at a rapid pace, the central challenge for these companies remains balancing high growth against substantial data center operational costs.
