My thoughts: ## 700 million weekly users (Google: approx. 3 billion daily) Are weekly users really a good metric? After all, if you use it just weekly is it really affecting your life?

## 18 billion messages weekly (Google: approx. 15 billion daily) Are Messages a good metric? Do I send a lot of messages because I can't get the right answer?

## Use Cases * 70% private use * Writing, searching for information, and advice are the most common uses, each accounting for 30% * Coding: 4% of total usage (where are my Vibe coders?)

It seems that most use cases are a more advanced form of wikihow The reason is that AI-usage is still very early and most people don't know what they can do with it. In the future, we'll see a lot of specialize SaaS-tools unbundling use cases and building advanced applications where users do not realize that they are using Gen Ai
