    What a surprise, they keep actively making their product more censored and worse while the competition has made huge strides in closing the gap.

    I stopped using it when they pulled the ability to search online and summarize things for me. shame how bad it’s become compared to when it launched.

    Fuckers don’t realize that a lot of the traffic is by students doing schoolwork and it’s around summer time now.

      They mention that in the article. But me personally, I’ve stopped using chatgpt because they keep kneecapping it. When I use it it seems harder for it to engage with what I want, and the answers are increasingly wrong or just not as good as before.

        Sooo mich this… I used to be able to type in one to simple worded prompts for something like banana bread and it would go in to detail for a recipe right away… now it will just barley explain what banana bread is and no recipe unless I prompt it… and.the recipes don’t have the same in depth step by steps they did before… now they are generic… it’s sad

      I’d of ran every assignment through it and came back using it as a ruff draft if it was around for my school years. Students have to be some of their most active userbase.

    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    ChatGPT took the world by storm when it was released last November, but it looks like it’s losing momentum.

    “One theory about why ChatGPT’s web traffic dropped over the summer is that school was out, which would help explain why the traffic trend stabilized in August as schoolchildren in the US were back in class in greater numbers toward the end of the month,” David F. Carr, a senior insights manager at Similarweb, wrote in the report.

    Before Meta’s Threads assumed the title in July, ChatGPT was the fastest-growing app ever when it reached 100 million users in two months.

    Some of that hype was prompted by students, leading to professors finding ways to combat ChatGPT plagiarism, and one Princeton student launching GPTZero to detect if an essay was written by AI.

    But it’s also being used in the workplace, with employees using ChatGPT to write code, do research, and improve time management.

    In July, users of OpenAI’s latest model, GPT-4, started complaining that the chatbot’s performance had declined.


    The original article contains 338 words, the summary contains 169 words. Saved 50%. I’m a bot and I’m open source!

    I use it semi regularly to write Power Automate expressions.

    That whole expression language is so stupid it’s easier to ask ChatGPT to do it.

    Well, it looks like ChatGPT’s popularity is plummeting faster than a burrito-induced bathroom sprint.
