Google's Gemini Surpasses ChatGPT, Tops Apple App Store

BlockBeats News, September 17th, Google has been striving to catch up with OpenAI in the field of generative artificial intelligence, and now it seems to have finally made progress among users. This week, Google's Gemini app claimed the top spot on the Apple App Store's free app ranking, surpassing ChatGPT, which led the generative AI craze nearly three years ago.

Google's Gemini AI model has recently rolled out some updates, attracting new users. Last month, Google released an upgraded version 2.5 Flash Image of its "Flash" AI model, adding an image editing feature called Nano Banana. Josh Woodward, the head of the Gemini app, stated that this product brought in 13 million new users for the Gemini app in just four days, bringing its total user base to 23 million since its launch.
