Ammon News - More than 2.5 million users have pledged to boycott ChatGPT following OpenAI's agreement with the Pentagon, triggering widespread criticism of the AI developer.

A website tracking the boycott reported that over 2.5 million users have already left ChatGPT, which has a global user base exceeding 900 million, after OpenAI signed a contract last week allowing the US Department of Defence to use the AI model on its classified network. The boycott figures are based on website pledges, social media shares, and app usage data, indicating growing disillusionment among users.

"We're organising Americans and people worldwide to quit ChatGPT," the boycott website said, adding that the campaign aims to send a strong message to technology enablers that such actions will not go unchallenged.
