ChatGPT tells us about the chess.com boom, plus other curiosities

The ideal product is in our mind and it keeps changing, we start from a standard that we personalize because we are all different, it is quite a challenge.
I understand that it is difficult to compete with other clubs, but it is more difficult to compete against the ideal club. Getting an AI-based (trained) reference has the benefit of verifying the path taken and gaining insights based on historical data and trends to apply in the future.
What factors influenced the growth boom of chess.com? The pandemic, artificial intelligence, answer me with the data you have.
It is difficult to say for sure what was the main cause of Chess.com's growth boom, as it is likely that there were several contributing factors. However, here is some information that might help you better understand the situation: According to Chess.com CEO Danny Rensch, the platform experienced a significant increase in user activity during the pandemic. In an interview with Forbes in June 2020, Rensch mentioned that Chess.com had seen a 60% increase in user activity since the start of the pandemic.
The popularity of chess-related TV series and movies, such as Netflix's "Queen's Gambit" and the PogChamps, have also been major factors in the rise of interest in chess in recent years.
As for artificial intelligence, it is true that it has played an important role in chess for many years. The advent of increasingly sophisticated and powerful chess programs has made chess more accessible and exciting for many players. In addition, the creation of chess bots for the platform has allowed users to practice and improve their skills in games against opponents of different levels.

For the first PogChamps in June 2020, we were already 35 million. That number doubled in just over a year, largely because more people were interested in chess during the lockdowns. Chess.com reaches 100 million users on Dec 19, 2022.
In September 2021 there were around 1000 users who had completed their passport, if there are currently 131,358,364 members.

After a series of calculation corrections trying to update some data, regardless of the fact that on the Internet all growth is exponential and non-linear. 
How many chess.com users have complete passports?

So if we have around 70 million total users in September 2021 and around 1000 users who had their full passport, the ratio would be 1.4 per 70,000 users who had a full passport, or 0.00001428571.

In December 2022, if they reached 100 million total users and assuming the ratio stays the same, it could be estimated that around 1,428 users they have your full passport at that time. It is important to note that this is only an estimate based on an assumption and there is no official data.

And currently there are 131,358,364 total users, what would be the estimated figure for users with a full passport?
If we assume the same ratio that we calculated above (1 user with a full passport for every 70,000 total users), we could estimate that there are currently about 1876 full passport users on chess.com. However, this is only an estimate and no precise data is available to confirm it.
