		tough 10 months ago \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: AGI Is Still 30 Years Away – Ege Erdil and Tamay B... have you wondered how many of these are bots leveraging free chatgpt with proxied vpn IPs? I'm a ChatGPT paying user but I know no one who's not a developer on my personal circles who also is one. maybe im an exeception edit: I guess 400M global users being the US 300M citizens isn't out of scope for such a highly used product amongst a 7B population But social media like instagram or fb feels like had network effects going for them making their growth faster and thus maybe why openai is exploring that idea idk
