To be fair it’s the band-aid of AI. The people that do want to use AI are using chatgpt. It works about as well as an LLM will right now and it basically sucks you off while it does it, so people like using it.
Copilot is chatGPT thrown into Microsoft apps and Gemini sucks, forcefully replaced the assistant app, and automatically comes up on Google searches with nonsense seemingly half the time.
(When I do use an LLM i use deepseek, but I recognize that I’m probably the minority in that)
chatgpt.com is the fourth-most-visted website in the world (as of September, when this data is from). That’s the website, not the API. People have to choose to go to the chatgpt.com website in their browser, when OpenAI’s APIs are used by other products they don’t go to the chatgpt.com website. The API is at openai.com.
How are all those people people being “forced” to go to chatgpt.com?
