Yep, this. I’ve switched to Claude for a while (because I can’t afford max plans for both) and nobody in the real world has any idea what it is I’m talking about. “Oh it’s like ChatGPT?”

Claude is also difficult to consistently pronounce for a non-English speaker. Sometimes people dont say that because it can get misinterpreted. ChatGPT is something easy on the the tongue and very difficult to mis-pronounce.

I know a lot of people who refer to it as ChatGTP which I assume stands for German treebrained performers

I suspect they chose that name because of the proximity with the word "cloud".

The CEO is also more puritan than the pope himself considering the amount of censorship it has. Not sure if they are even interested in marketing to normies though.

Ah yes, the Latin-originating French name that has a variant at least in every Latin language is hard to pronounce for non-English users.
