Here's a chart where #OpenAI categorizes conversation topics with #ChatGPT. Interesting to me how only 4.2% is for creating an image. I have to wonder if they're downplaying that due to copyright controversies. (But I have no evidence of that.)

Some fascinating data in OpenAI's report "How people use ChatGPT" - like this chart showing user growth. I feel like we were just talking about the journey to one million users and now it's close to 800 million. #chatGPT #CIOsky #openAI

Here's a signal that shows how AI is a game-changer in security. N-able says its threat hunting team enhanced its capabilities by 153 times with AI. My question is - how enhanced were the adversaries using AI? #SOC #cybersec #CIOSky
