SparkToro: Survey shows that nearly 30% of users use ChatGPT to assist in programming

What tasks do people mainly use ChatGPT to solve? SparkToro recently obtained more than 7,000 real user requests to ChatGPT from Datos and screened out the most relevant 4,098. By using ChatGPT itself to classify these requests by topic, the following results were obtained:

Programming is the most common use case, accounting for 29.14% of all questions and answers. This is also the clearest use case, with ChatGPT being used to help write specific code, format code, find code errors, etc.

Education is the second largest use case, which not only refers to primary or high school education, but also includes personal knowledge or interest exploration and professional knowledge search for work purposes.

Content creation is the third largest use case, some of which are personal and others are professional.

The project also analyzed the most common words in ChatGPT request conversations, with "Write", "Create" and "List" ranking in the top three.

Datos has a privacy-compliant clickstream data panel of 20 million devices (desktop and mobile, covering more than 200 countries) that provides deep insights into real user behavior online.
