As recently as January, ChatGPT still had more than 50 percent of total AI market share, but now, it&#8217;s down to 46.4 percent, per Sensor Tower.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"text text-block paragraph text-left neo-font-paragraph-xl-reg  yf-18d6y07\" style=\"text-decoration: none; font-style: normal; text-transform: none; text-align: inherit; font-variant-numeric: normal;\">Let&#8217;s put it this way: In a multi-candidate election, ChatGPT would still win by a landslide, but this is a sign that other AI tools are gaining momentum. Namely, <a href=\"https:\/\/in.mashable.com\/gemini\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\" data-ylk=\"slk:Google%20Gemini;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" data-yga=\"{&quot;yLinkText&quot;:&quot;Google Gemini&quot;,&quot;yLinkElement&quot;:&quot;context_link&quot;,&quot;yModuleName&quot;:&quot;content-canvas&quot;}\">Google Gemini<\/a> is up to 27.7 percent, while Anthropic&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/in.mashable.com\/tech\/72547\/claude-fable-5-vs-gpt-55-is-this-why-the-trump-admin-banned-one-and-not-the-other\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\" data-ylk=\"slk:Claude;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" data-yga=\"{&quot;yLinkText&quot;:&quot;Claude&quot;,&quot;yLinkElement&quot;:&quot;context_link&quot;,&quot;yModuleName&quot;:&quot;content-canvas&quot;}\">Claude<\/a> is up to 10.3 percent. Earlier this year, Anthropic even reported it was seeing a million new users every day. Other AI chatbots, including Grok and Meta AI, has less than 5 percent market share.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"text text-block paragraph text-left neo-font-paragraph-xl-reg  yf-18d6y07\" style=\"text-decoration: none; font-style: normal; text-transform: none; text-align: inherit; font-variant-numeric: normal;\">Even with its slight dip from majority to plurality, ChatGPT seems to be doing quite well. Sensor Tower said it has 1.1 billion monthly users, with Gemini fairly far behind it in that metric, with 662 million monthly users. As Gemini starts working its way into everyday devices and services, like Apple&#8217;s new <a href=\"https:\/\/in.mashable.com\/tech\/72280\/apples-new-smarter-siri-ai-is-finally-here\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\" data-ylk=\"slk:Siri%20AI;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" data-yga=\"{&quot;yLinkText&quot;:&quot;Siri AI&quot;,&quot;yLinkElement&quot;:&quot;context_link&quot;,&quot;yModuleName&quot;:&quot;content-canvas&quot;}\">Siri AI<\/a> coming later this year, that number could grow even further.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"text text-block paragraph text-left neo-font-paragraph-xl-reg  yf-18d6y07\" style=\"text-decoration: none; font-style: normal; text-transform: none; text-align: inherit; font-variant-numeric: normal;\">In another troubling sign for OpenAI, Microsoft recently indicated it may go with the lower-cost Chinese model DeepSeek to power some enterprise AI tools.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"text text-block paragraph text-left neo-font-paragraph-xl-reg  yf-18d6y07\" style=\"text-decoration: none; font-style: normal; text-transform: none; text-align: inherit; font-variant-numeric: normal;\">Lastly, don&#8217;t forget that OpenAI is prepping for a possible IPO later this year.
