Thats less than 50 million GPT plus subscriptions, even fewer if you factor in the more expensive subscriptions. Thats alot of subscriptions, but not an implausible number.

    Good point.

    That would put OpenAI around #5 on this list (by estimated subscriber count): https://largest.org/technology/largest-saas-businesses-by-number-of-subscribers/

    Less than Microsoft, Google, SalesForce and Zoom - but higher than Slack, DropBox, and Adobe Creative Cloud.

    It's surprising and rare for a relatively new company to jump that high in user base this quick.

    It's surprising, but it's plausible. OpenAI and derived products do anecdotally seem about that popular, this year.

    That’s a strange list. OpenAI doesn’t only offer SaaS for end users, it also offers API access which puts it into the infrastructure game with the likes of Amazon AWS, Google Cloud, and Microsoft Azure (which actually offers OpenAI services and pushes them out to Windows users en masse).
