OpenAI Says ChatGPT Search Queries Now Account for 20% of Google's Volume
Adam Fry, head of consumer products at OpenAI's ChatGPT, said on Monday that ChatGPT now handles search queries equivalent to 20% of Google's volume. He clarified that "search" here refers only to queries triggering web retrievals, excluding tasks like looking up word definitions, though he did not specify Google's data source. By contrast, Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella testified in a 2023 antitrust hearing that Bing had held only about a 3% market share for over a decade.
