It’s interesting how consistent survey data on LLM usage is. Something like 10% of people are using this every day or so, another 15 or 20% every week or two, and then about 50% have looked at it and not come back.

We ran a survey to 600 sales execs across the US and EMEA and asked how many use Chatgpt. The answer? 100%. Happy to send you the raw data if interested

I'm curious of the role/position of the users in each segment there. AI doesn't provide equal value to everyone.

Avocados showed the same pattern in … 1968. And 8-track tapes in 1973. So is this year’s AI likely avocados or 8-track tapes? My vote is 8 track tapes.

Gmail 1-, 7-, and 30-day Actives are in ratios of roughly 1:3:9. Anything smaller is more highly engaged.

Turns out, even an LLM can't help people to ask better questions ;)

I cancelled my Perplexity subscription after it proved unable to give me the increase in the length of the Paris metro since 2000. Easily calcolable from Wikipedia.

I guess the average non-techie user is not looking for raw LLMs, but for user-friendly applications, addressing specific use cases. And they are likely not so keen on "vibe coding" their way through that, and rather wait for the dust to settle.

the remaining 20% haven't touched it? guess we know how many people still read books.
