ChatGPT “added one million users in the last hour.”
K ChatGPT “added one million users in the last hour.” Last week, OpenAI released Images for ChatGPT which led to an explosion of interest thanks to its ability, in part, to generate Studio Ghibli inspired AI art. It looks like the virality has paid off — CEO Sam Altman posted that the company has added one million users in the last hour alone (he’s also been begging users to stop generating images: “our GPUs are melting”).
