Chat gpt is a great name though — you “chat” with the “GPT” so its self informing (even if you dont know what a GPT is), it’s 4 syllables that roll off the tongue well together.

RSS, has no vowels, no information, and looks like an alphabet term you might see at the doctor’s office or in an HR onboarding form at a corpo.

Randos are just calling it "Chat" now.

"I'll ask Chat about x!"

In Japan it's now known colloquially as 「チャッピー」 ("Chappy" or "Chappie"). High praise that it has received such shortened and personified version so quickly.
It’s the new ”I looked it up on wiki”.
I've heard 'just ai it' from high schoolers.
