And that's just before lunch. The sheer strength is amazing to behold, and the pace is, if you will, break neck. The stakes? Enormous. And the unsetting weight throwing feels intentional, structural rather than accidental."
"ChatGPT, just three years old, is one of the fastest-adopted consumer products in history, with 800 million monthly active users (as of this writing), $20 billion in annual recurring revenue and an ever-expanding role in how people write, code, search, study, shop and work. It has challenged successfully many of the former digital leading players, bursting into the fight cage of digital advertising and marketing like a strutting young bully able to put up its dukes against the older incumbents in search,"
