Despite being less than a year old, ChatGPT has been hailed as the fastest growing consumer internet app of all time, reaching 100 million monthly users in just two months post-launch. The release of these figures seems to be a response to recent media reports suggesting a decline in ChatGPT's popularity since its release in November last year.
