The market of people buying APIs for popular chatbots. Right now OpenAI's GPT is overwhelmingly the most popular option and pretty expensive. You constantly see a lot of "powered by GPT" features on products now, but hopefully Claude can provide some better competition.

Fair, I don't see any real use for these right now. Chatbots just seem like a gimmick that can help people cheat in school (not that I give a fuck about that). Probably just the online circles we run in, what sorta things are powered by GPT? Customer support and stuff?

You've got stuff like helping assistants on Duolingo and Khan Academy powered by GPT-4, you've got stuff like tools for automatic search engine optimization, tools for automatic code generation, tools for grammar spell checking, tools for translation, and probably a lot more I'm unaware of.

There's quite a lot of people depending on GPT right now.

The Khan academy approach to ai-assisted learning looks amazing and it's just a first attempt. I think having individual, endlessly patient AI tutors leading each student via the Socratic method will revolutionise teaching. Teachers actually have more time to socialise with the students, so fears that ai learning would deprive children of the social interaction may be put to rest. It looks really promising.
