Generative AI

Which AI would you like to ask?

One question. Three of the best-known AI assistants.

Generative AI answers questions in full sentences, drafts text and explains context. The answers are produced from probabilities rather than looked up in a reference work, so they can be wrong.

This page collects the publicly documented usage figures of the major providers and lets you put the same question to the three largest ones directly. All three work differently, so a comparison is worthwhile.

Usage figures

How widely generative AI is actually used can only be documented in part: providers publish different metrics, and not always regularly. Each figure below therefore states its source and its date.

The list ends at seven services because no comparably collected figures exist for the others. Padding it out to ten would be guesswork, not measurement.

The figures as charts

The same figures shown graphically. Only what was actually published is drawn · no estimated values in between.

Each dot is a single published announcement, not a continuous measurement. The lines connect the dots for readability only · they say nothing about the months in between.
