Curious internet users looked at ChatGPT’s Wikipedia page more than any other English article on the open-source online encyclopedia website this year, according to the Wikimedia Foundation.
The English version of the Wikipedia page for ChatGPT, the extremely popular artificial intelligence (AI) chatbot developed by OpenAI, produced an eye-popping 49.49 million page views in 2023, the nonprofit said Tuesday. On a daily basis during the first six months of the year, it typically saw 100,000-400,000 views.
Compared to the second-most popular English article, Deaths in 2023, ChatGPT’s generated over 6.8 million more page views, according to the Wikimedia Foundation. For the remaining three spots on in its top-five English Wikipedia articles, the nonprofit included the 2023 Cricket World Cup, Indian Premier League and the “Oppenheimer” film.
