Platform: LINKEDIN --- Caption/Description --- I work inside Google's AI team. Here's what the market share numbers actually look like right now. Google Gemini just crossed 662 million users. And most people still underestimate what's coming next. For the first time ever, ChatGPT fell below 50% market share. And Gemini is the biggest reason why. Here's what the numbers actually look like right now: - ChatGPT → 1.1B users. 46.4% market share. Still the biggest. But slipping. - Claude → 245M users. Growing fast. Winning enterprise. - Google Gemini → 662M users. 27.7% market share. And accelerating. What's driving Gemini? Distribution. Built into Android, Search, Gmail, Workspace, and Google One. 3 billion people already inside the ecosystem before they even open the app. That's not a product advantage. That's an infrastructure advantage. I've watched this from the inside. The momentum is real.
