Europe wants to turn Digital Euro (CBDC) into a stablecoin

OpenAI Reveals How (and Which) People Are Using ChatGPT

gizmodo.com Aj Dellinger 2025-10-04 04:00:57

Large language models largely remain black boxes in terms of what is happening inside them to produce the outputs that they do. They have also been a bit of a black box in terms of who is using them and what they are doing with them. OpenAI, with some help from the National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER), set out to figure out what exactly its growing user base is getting up to with its chatbot. It found a surprising amount of personal use and a closing “gender gap” among its frequent users.
