OpenAI to Launch GPT Store, May Replace Google Assistant on Android
The AI research company's new marketplace will allow developers to create and monetize custom AI chatbots, while hidden code suggests ChatGPT could become the default assistant on Android devices.
- OpenAI is set to launch its GPT Store next week, a marketplace for developers to create, share, and monetize customized versions of the AI chatbot, ChatGPT.
- Developers can build these generative pre-trained transformers (GPTs) in plain English, without any coding skills required, potentially democratizing AI app creation.
- OpenAI CEO Sam Altman has previously stated that the company plans to share revenue with developers, but details of this plan have not yet been released.
- OpenAI's ChatGPT may also be gearing up to replace Google Assistant as the default helper tool on Android devices, with hidden code in the latest version of the ChatGPT app suggesting this functionality.
- Despite these advancements, there are concerns about the security of GPTs, with reports of hackers being able to extract the instructions for how they were made.
