A New AI Challenger – Grammarly Emerges as Surprising Challenger to Copilot, ChatGPT and Gemini, Exclusive Ny Breaking Surveys Show
AI continues to weave its way into our daily lives, offering a wide range of solutions designed to improve productivity, creativity and communication.
To find out which tools were used the most in the past month, we recently conducted a survey on the Ny Breaking WhatsApp channel.
We received over 6,600 responses and the results provide intriguing insight into the current preferences and behavior of AI users.
Grammarly was the surprise hit
Not surprisingly, ChatGPT emerged as the most popular AI tool among respondents; as many as 2,400 people have used it in the past 30 days. OpenAI’s versatile language model recently received a major update (ChatGPT 4o) that significantly improves its capabilities and we are only at the beginning of understanding its capabilities.
Then, 1,100 respondents said they had used Microsoft Copilot. The strong results in the study can be attributed to the tool’s integration into Windows 11 and Microsoft Office applications. The addition of a Copilot key on new AI PCs will only have helped here.
Google Gemini was used by 811 respondents, which is both a respectable and disappointing result for Google, whose AI efforts are failing to be on par with OpenAI’s.
Grammarly proved to be a surprise hit in the poll with the main goal of improving writing quality across platforms, with 584 monthly users.
Interestingly, Midjourney and Stable Diffusion only attracted 124 and 107 users respectively. There are a number of tools that can generate DALL-E 3 powered artwork, including Copilot and the paid version of ChatGPT, so that will explain some of the reasons why these numbers are lower than expected.
A notable number of respondents, 557 in total, reported using other AI tools not explicitly mentioned in the survey, hinting at the vast and evolving landscape of AI solutions available today. On the other hand, 605 participants said they had not used any AI tools in the past 30 days, indicating that a large portion of the population has not yet integrated AI into their daily routines.
Just a final note about our findings. WhatApp’s polls allow respondents to provide more than one answer, as well as conflicting answers (e.g., “Something else” and “I haven’t used any AI tools”). However, we assume that the latter is a statistically insignificant event.
