OpenAI has released a new study on how people are using ChatGPT, and it includes who's using it, and what they are using it for. There's a bit of blue sky there, too, where it looks at how use is evolving.

Usage gaps are closing as we increasingly democratize AI.

Heh. Tells me all I want to know about this research (read it for yourself.)

It's a tool. Not magic. One that can have hallucinations.

Who is using ChatGPT more illustrative, and that is something to think about.

Interesting snapshot of how mainstream ChatGPT has become.

It shows uptake is broadening across age groups and professions, and use cases are shifting from novelty chats to everyday productivity. As tangor notes, it’s still just a tool, powerful but fallible; so the key takeaway is how quickly people are normalizing AI as part of their daily workflow, not treating it as “magic.”
