How People Actually Use ChatGPT

NATHANIEL WHITTEMORE
About this episode

This episode of AI Daily Brief dives into two important reports on how people are really using AI tools like ChatGPT and Claude. OpenAI’s massive study with Harvard and NBER reveals consumer patterns across 1.5 million conversations, while Anthropic’s Economic Index tracks broader economic and automation trends. We break down key insights on global adoption, everyday use cases, work vs. personal usage, and what these findings mean for startups, enterprise AI, and the future of automation.
