Students are back to school and back to ChatGPT for homework help.
At least that's the theory for a slight boost in web traffic according to digital data and analytics company Similarweb. In its report, visits to chat.openai.com increased by 0.4 percent in August — but only in the U.S. Globally, traffic dropped, but only by 3 percent. Similarlweb suggests that ChatGPT traffic is finally leveling out after dropping in traffic for three months in a row (domestically and globally).

"In the U.S., traffic dropped 10 percent in May, 15 percent in June, and another 4 percent in July," said David F. Carr in the report, which used college age students as a proxy for students in general. "While over those same months the percentage of users in the 18-24 year age bracket – which had been pushing 30 percent in April – dropped to less than 27 percent by July."
Clearly, students are a strong user base for the AI chatbot, which has stirred controversy because of plagiarism in school. Some educators have embraced ChatGPT use by students for research and as a tool for writing exercises — as OpenAI ever-so-helpfully suggests.
It's crazy to think, but ChatGPT was released less than a year ago, so it's still early days for schools navigating a new normal where essays and answers can get generated within seconds by the chatbot. Whatever happens, as the numbers suggests, ChatGPT is becoming a mainstay for students.
