quick preliminary search of LW and EA forums found few enough hits that I can check all of the relevant ones manually. there’s:
this question on the EA forums by a new user with a Chinese username, which went unanswered.
one mention in one of Zvi’s Dec 2025 AI roundups, where he casually mentions a (native?) use case that I don’t think any western frontier model is capable of, which is simple enough to use that average parents can take advantage of it
one ignored linkpost of a newsletter covering Chinese AI, which mentions that DouBao exceeded 100 million users in September 2024
OpenAI had 300 million weekly active users in December 2024, I don’t know what exact metric “100 million users” refers to.
