Volume is not a verdict

Share of voice with its band and every count per 100 voices.

ChatGPT has the most dislike voices in raw numbers (1162) because it has the most voices of any kind (43.2% of all voices on named tools). Per 100 voices, the highest dislike rate among tools with 10+ voices is Harvey (48 per 100). Rates and bands compare; totals don’t.
