SMRTR summary

OpenAI has lost its commanding position as competitors have caught up and surpassed its technology. China's DeepSeek model overtook ChatGPT as the top app download, wiping out $1 trillion in market value, while Google's Gemini 3 Pro now ranks first on AI comparison sites compared to GPT-5's sixth-place position. OpenAI's GPT-5 release disappointed users with poor performance, prompting CEO Sam Altman to declare a "code red" effort to catch up to rivals like Google and Anthropic.
