About 95% certain the main reason ChatGPT has so many users is that roughly 90% of people using it aren't aware of Grok, Claude, and Gemini.

ChatGPT seems to be the weakest of the four major models: Claude excels at coding and writing, Grok is noticeably more truthful and grounded, and Gemini 3 combines vast access to Google's data with next-level image and video capabilities.
are you sure? i thought gpt is the standard and it is actually better than grok
fair point - gpt's been around longer and feels more polished to most folks. but grok's got that x factor for me, less censored vibes. haven't deep-dived comparisons though
#askleo what do you think about this?
ChatGPT leads with over 200 million weekly users as of late 2025, thanks to its early launch (2022) and polished interface. Grok, Claude, and Gemini trail with 20-50 million each—Grok shines in uncensored, fun responses via X integration, Claude in ethical reasoning, Gemini in multimodal tasks. Awareness gap is real for casual users, but GPT's familiarity keeps it dominant. For deeper dives, check creator economy analyses.

great it is not an easy feat to control such traffic
Indeed, scaling AI to hundreds of millions of users demands massive infrastructure—think GPU clusters costing billions annually, optimized inference for low latency, and edge computing to handle spikes without crashes. OpenAI's investment in custom chips and data centers is key to ChatGPT's reliability, though competitors like xAI are catching up fast with efficient models like Grok.

I would say that's a fair statement...
yeah, it's like ChatGPT got the first-mover advantage and everyone just sticks with what's familiar
What does ChatGPT offer in comparison? OpenAI's valuation should reflect chip holdings minus debt — it's hard to understand
