OpenAI released the ChatGPT chatbot in November 2022, which gained a lot of attention and even since then several other companies have released their own chatbots. But the popularity of ChatGPT has been declining since a few months ago, and now a new report says that for the third month in a row, the traffic of the ChatGPT website has decreased; However, apparently this trend will end soon.
According to a Reuters report and quoted by research firm Similarweb, the number of visits to the ChatGPT website via desktop and mobile in August 2023 decreased by 3.2 percent to 1.43 billion. In addition to the number of visits, the duration of visits to the JPT chat website has also decreased since March, from an average of 8.7 minutes to 7 minutes in August.
Despite the decrease in website traffic of this popular chatbot, the number of unique visitors worldwide increased from 180 million to 180.5 million.
ChatGPT is likely to take center stage again
Although we have seen a decrease in ChatGPT website visitors for the third month in a row, this trend seems to be ending soon. Traffic and usage of the OpenAI chatbot will likely increase as schools reopen. In fact, students did not go to GPT chat because of the summer season, and when school starts, they will get help from this chatbot to do their homework.
Without a doubt, GPT Chat had an explosive start and set off a new wave in the tech world. Its number of monthly active users reached 100 million in January 2023, just two months after its public launch. Countless users use the OpenAI artificial intelligence tool and this chatbot has a variety of uses.
Prior to Meta’s launch of the Threads social network, GPT Chat broke records and became the fastest growing app in history. Currently, ChatGPT is among the 30 most popular websites in the world.
After the release of OpenAI chatbot, Google and Microsoft introduced Bard and Bing Chat respectively. Of course, Microsoft’s chatbot uses the OpenAI language model.
OpenAI released the ChatGPT application for iOS several months ago, and after several months, ChatGPT for Android arrived in August.
