According to him, the main usage patterns by generation are as follows:
- Older generations: Used as a search tool to replace Google
- People in their 20s-30s: Used as a life advisor

In particular, college students use advanced methods such as saving complex prompts or attaching files, and continue interactions that reflect personal context through ChatGPT's memory feature.
According to OpenAI's report, more than a third of the 18-24 age population in the US uses ChatGPT, and they use AI for relationship advice, business, medical questions, and even counseling/therapy purposes.
