• Abstract: OpenAI's advanced large language models (LLMs) have revolutionized natural language processing and enabled developers to create innovative applications. As adoption grows, understanding the experiences and challenges of developers working with these technologies is crucial. This paper presents a comprehensive analysis of the OpenAI Developer Forum, focusing on (1) popularity trends and user engagement patterns, and (2) a taxonomy of challenges and concerns faced by developers. We first employ a quantitative analysis of the metadata from 29,576 forum topics, investigating temporal trends in topic creation, the popularity of topics across different categories, and user contributions at various trust levels. We then qualitatively analyze content from 9,301 recently active topics on developer concerns. From a sample of 886 topics, we construct a taxonomy of concerns in the OpenAI Developer Forum. Our findings uncover critical concerns raised by developers in creating AI-powered applications and offer targeted recommendations to address them. This work not only advances AI-assisted software engineering but also empowers developer communities to shape the responsible evolution and integration of AI technology in society.
