AI Collapse: Why Everyone Cancelling ChatGPT Subscription?

It is already know that the artificial intelligence takeover in several sectors has been troubling the employment market. However, there are occasional ups and downs in this area and here’s a look into the same.

The QuitGPT movement is a viral online campaign urging users to cancel their paid ChatGPT subscriptions and stop using the platform as a form of protest.

It has gained traction across social media like Reddit and Instagram and even has a dedicated website where people pledge to quit ChatGPT. Organizers claim hundreds of thousands of users have already signed up.

The campaign frames itself not as a rejection of AI in general, but as a stand against what supporters see as problematic corporate behaviour and values.

A big catalyst was the revelation that OpenAI’s president donated a large sum to a political super PAC supporting Donald Trump, which many users sharply criticised as conflicting with their own values. Critics also point to reports that government agencies like U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement use AI tools powered by ChatGPT in hiring processes, raising ethical concerns.

Celebrities such as Mark Ruffalo have amplified the movement, bringing it into mainstream discussion. While QuitGPT highlights growing unease about the social and political implications of artificial intelligence, its actual impact on the huge global user base of ChatGPT remains unclear most users still find the tool useful and use it in their daily routines.
