Among the major internet milestones that have appeared in the last few decades ChatGPT, as an online sensation, has been markedly faster at accumulating a million users than any other. This list of, albeit slightly different, major internet services and pieces of technology, demonstrates how quickly ChatGPT accumulated a userbase. While the two leading services discussed here, Netflix and Airbnb, were both competing with existing market structures, ChatGPT has few, if any, rivals in its capacity as a chatbot.
ChatGPT
As a chatbot service, ChatGPT has taken the internet by storm in recent days. Made by the small but successful startup OpenAI, also well known for their art generative artificial intelligence Dall-E, it has accumulated a large number of users and funding, as well as several controversies. Universities have been struggling to tackle essays generated by ChatGPT, with some in Australia claiming that a return to pen and paper might be needed.

As Apple’s most successful product, the iPhone is one of the most heavyweight players in the smartphone market, with dozens of millions of iPhones being shipped every quarter. Indeed, when it comes to smartphone vendor share, Apple is the second largest smartphone vendor in the world after Samsung. Before ChatGPT it had been the phenomenon fastest to one million users.
