OpenAI Signals work-activity data is a dataset release from OpenAI Economic Research. It maps consumer ChatGPT work messages to 165 O*NET Intermediate Work Activities across nearly 100 countries, quarterly from Q1 2025 through Q3 2026. Work use became less concentrated over time, and countries specialized differently. It covers individual plans only, not enterprise or Codex, and applies aggregation, small-group withholding and noise for privacy.
TL;DR Releases country-level quarterly data linking ChatGPT work use to 165 O*NET work activities, for labor and AI research.
