AI News: OpenAI to Launch Custom ChatGPT Store
The much-awaited OpenA ChatGPT Store is set to go live next week as the Artificial Intelligence (AI) giant sets a new standard in the technology world. Designed as a customizable store that can empower developers and users across the board, the OpenAI ChatGPT store will raise the bar of engagement and possibly drive new users to the platform.
The OpenAI ChatGPT Store
The innovation for the store was first teased last year at the company’s DevDay event with original plans to launch in December. At the time, the company described the innovation as a store to share customized AI agents with the plan to create an environment for unique AI prompts that can serve the same purpose as Google and Apple’s Play/App Store for Android and iOS applications respectively.
Creating a customized ChatGPT Store does not require coding experience as OpenAI’s dedicated GPT Builder can help create any store based on regular prompts fed into it with simple word prompts. However, access to the OpenAI ChatGPT Store is only available for paying subscribers.
With OpenAI updating its user guidelines as reported earlier by Coingape, developers will have to agree to the new rules while also consenting to making their GPT stores “Public.” With the fact that ChatGPT remains the most advanced AI chatbot in the industry today means there is a wide variety of stores that can be hosted with a degree of accuracy the company hopes to keep building on.
One aspect that is yet to be formalized is whether ChatGPT store owners will share revenue with OpenAI, a modality that will be perfected in the coming weeks.
OpenAI Leadership Tussle Disrupted Plans
The original plan for the OpenAI ChatGPT store was to go live in December, however, the company faced a short turbulent time in November when the then-board surprisingly fired Sam Altman as the CEO of the company.
Investor and employee panic made the board reverse the dismissal and the whole leadership tussle at the time halted some of the plans in the firm’s roadmap, including the launch of ChatGPT Store.
At the moment, developers have started using the OpenAI ChatGPT store in test mode, implying the coast is clear for its eventual launch.
