Recall your 2023 internet searches. Well, Wikipedia has the data. The Wikimedia Foundation, overseeing the freely edited online encyclopedia, revealed that English Wikipedia amassed over 84 billion views this year. Notably, the most frequented article centered on ChatGPT, the omnipresent AI chatbot that has rapidly permeated diverse fields such as education, healthcare, law, and even religious discourse. OpenAI’s ChatGPT launched just over a year ago, has stirred discussions about the promises and potential risks of generative AI, comprehensively chronicled on its Wikipedia page.
