ChatGPT's largest user group is students

India is a big deal for OpenAI right now. They recently launched a $4.60 monthly plan aimed at the country's huge internet crowd, and Indian students are ChatGPT's largest user group—with weekly active users jumping 4x over the past year.
Still, OpenAI has some hurdles ahead, including legal challenges from local publishers and tough competition from free AI options like Google Gemini and Perplexity.
