Any evidence backing up these claims about adoption?

I thought the same about adoption (across multiple audiences, not just tech workers and/or young people), was faced with surprising poor knowledge about GenAI when making surveys about it in my company. Maybe investors are asking the same questions right now.




Pew Research asked Americans this March:

https://www.pewresearch.org/short-reads/2024/03/26/americans...

23% said they'd used ChatGPT, 43% said they hadn't, 34% didn't know what it was.


the article states

> The Information recently reported that OpenAI’s revenue is now $3.4B, up from $1.6B in late 2023.

That's a lot of $20/month subscriptions. it's not all that but that's a lot of money, regardless.


OpenAI’s revenue is not exclusively subscriptions.

There are a lot of companies building private GPTs and using their API.


IIRC openai was the fastest growing service by subscriptions of all time.
