Over 150 Million Users Join ChatGPT Afternoon Ghibli-Student AI Art Goes Viral

A recent trend of creating AI-generated images that look like they were made by Studio Ghibli has caused a huge rise in the number of people using ChatGPT. The sudden popularity of this Ghibli-style artwork, which many users are sharing on social media, has led to record-breaking activity on OpenAI’s platform.

As a result of this viral trend, the number of weekly active users of ChatGPT has jumped to over 150 million, making it the biggest increase in user numbers so far this year. The demand has been so high that OpenAI’s servers have had trouble keeping up, showing just how popular the platform has become.

OpenAI’s CEO, Sam Altman, shared that an incredible one million new users signed up within just one hour, which is far faster than the growth seen when the platform was first launched.

This explosion in interest shows how powerful and appealing AI-generated content can be, especially when it taps into something as beloved as the animation style of Studio Ghibli. It also highlights how quickly new trends can spread across the internet and draw millions of people to new technology.
