Google and Grok Challenge ChatGPT

According to Andreessen Horowitz's latest AI report, ChatGPT rivals such as Google's Gemini, xAI's Grok, and to a lesser extent, Meta AI, are closing the gap to ChatGPT. The report showcases two and a half years of data on consumer AI product usage.

Fourteen companies, including ChatGPT, Perplexity, Poe, and Character AI, appeared on the list of top AI products. These companies represent a cross-section of AI usage for general assistance, companionship, image and video editing, voice generation, productivity, and model hosting.

For the first time, Google gained four spots on the list of top generative AI consumer web products with entries for Gemini, AI Studio, NotebookLM, and Google Labs. Gemini is closing the gap to ChatGPT on mobile devices, showing strong adoption on Android.

Grok ranked fourth on the web and 23rd on mobile, showing rapid growth. Meta's general assistant ranked 46th on the web but did not make the top mobile AI apps list.

Chinese AI makers also made the top 20 on the web, with significant traffic coming from China. On mobile, 22 of the top 50 apps were developed in China, with only three primarily used in China.
