They still have the most recognized AI brand name and they are still the most popular LLM. For most users, a 10% diff between Claude and GPT isnt going to move the needle plus it seems to be a horse race anyways. I think their user base is stickier than you would think. Still, it isn't as sticky as social media and it is cheaper to switch AIs than email accounts.

Look at the ChatGPT usage share. It's dropped dramatically in the last year.

This is not the winner take all market that OpenAI needs it to be.

Its still dominant and a lot higher % wise if you count paying users. Gemini was integrated into Google search so its not necessarily people using Gemini as their daily assistant.
