As per Similarweb, "in the US, traffic dropped 10% in May, 15% in June, and another 4% in July, while over those same months the percentage of users in the 18-24 year age bracket – which had been pushing 30% in April – dropped to less than 27% by July".
The surge in traffic post the start of the academic year in schools is alarming for many. From plagiarism to generating content for homework instantly, ChatGPT has been giving a tough time to educational institutes.
