Artificial intelligence has ceased to be a future promise and has become a daily reality: over 700 million people use it weekly. A recent report from the National Bureau of Economic Research reveals the profound impact of ChatGPT, the world's most popular chatbot, on the way we work, learn, and entertain ourselves.
Since its launch in 2022, ChatGPT has reached 10% of the global adult population, with 18 billion messages sent each week. This adoption rate surpasses that of any other digital technology in recent history.
While the conversation often focuses on the business use of AI, the study highlights that personal use is growing rapidly. In fact, 80% of interactions with ChatGPT are concentrated on everyday activities, such as information searching, problem-solving, and idea generation.
The report concludes that the greatest value of ChatGPT lies in its ability to enhance decision-making and content creation, especially in knowledge-based professions where writing and problem-solving are essential.
Generative AI not only automates tasks but also expands our capacity to think, decide, and create. The challenge now is to learn how to integrate it responsibly and productively, both at work and in daily life.
