The article doesn't make it clear, but I doubt "users" includes consumers of the API (and the second-order users of the apps using the API). It seems not only reasonable but expected to see the general user count fall off in favor of people building more specialized alternatives that solve XYZ problem better. ChatGPT (the B2C SaaS) might have a lower user count, but ChatGPT (the model) and GPT (the technology) seem as strong as ever, if not stronger. Literally every service I use is integrating some kind of GPT-based feature that seems to work at least as well as trying to ask those domain-specific questions to ChatGPT, minus the external dependency.
