If you're going to cite that NBER report from OpenAI about "how people use AI," you've got to at least caveat it. We have no way to directly verify most of the report, and we do have at least one good reason, via indirect evidence and quoted below, to not trust it. nber.org/papers/w34255

Not the point of the OP, but I was curious and took a closer look at this 2025 piece from OpenAI. Much could be said, but it fails my go-to test for all of these pieces about "how people actually use AI": the tokens "sex" "erotic" and "NSFW" do not appear in the paper.
interesting to see them citing the meta-crisis and failure to address it as a prime reason for moving on - "our wisdom must grow in equal measure to our capacity to affect the world, lest we face the consequences" raising meta-crisis awareness among AI researchers is a great way to reduce x-risk 👍 >
