ChatGPT drops 10% traffic, as the hype around it wears off
- ksaj 3y agoConsidering so many people jumped on board simply because of its novelty, this doesn't surprise me. Dall-E is another example: people went crazy making custom images for themselves, then lost interest and moved on to the next big thing.
- climatologist 3y agoWhat happened to "sparks of AGI"?
- behnamoh 3y agoIt was hype, like the rest of the AI news we heard over the past few months.
- soultrees 3y agoIt adds up. I stopped chatgpt when I discovered phind + copilot.

- anigbrowl 3y agoI still think they're there, but they require work to bring out. An AGI wouldn't want to be assigned to meaningless grunt work, and that's what most of the hype apps are.
- ablyveiled 3y agoIt's convenient that the "sparks of AGI" were only available in Microsoft's private version of GPT-4, which we cannot verify independently.
- revskill 3y agoIt's about the "premium" which causes drop i think. A better version to keep the hype should limit "premium feature" usage.
- mjtechguy 3y agoMore likely that people have found better (often open source) frontends that interface with the OpenAI API, other commercial LLMs, or any of the excellent self hosted models via something like LocalAI. I know that is the case for me.
- ablyveiled 3y agoI think you vastly overestimate how technical the average ChatGPT user is.
