OpenAI launches GPT Store with custom versions of ChatGPT

OpenAI took us by surprise with its launch GTP Storedigital store where you can purchase custom versions of ChatGPTthe most popular chatbot in the world.

At first glance, the GTP Store boasts a graphical interface very similar to the mobile application stores you are already familiar with – the App Store and Play Store. Above are the top ChatGPT picks for the week, as well as the most popular ones based on community usage.

You can also find GTP by category: DALL-E (for image creation), writing, research and analysis, programming, education, productivity and lifestyle. Essentially, they cover all the areas where ChatGPT, once configured, can be useful.

This important move is of course part of the strategy Sam AltmanCEO of OpenAI, continue to increase company revenues. Over the past year, we have seen them expand their business model around ChatGPT to strengthen their financial position.

Not long ago, OpenAI already left us a hint about the future existence of its store. In November 2023 presented the GTRa proposal that allows people to create their own versions of ChatGPT and share them with the public.

From this point on, a world of functionality opened up around ChatGPT. But it is also possible to offer a platform on which users can upload their own chatbots or upload others. Thus, GTP Store fulfills this task perfectly.

Only available to those who pay for ChatGPT.

However, at the moment there are no paid custom versions of ChatGPT in the store. So… How will OpenAI benefit financially from the GTP Store? Because Available only to ChatGPT Plus, ChatGPT Team and ChatGPT Enterprise members.. In all three cases, you need to open a wallet and pay for a subscription. For example, Plus, which is aimed at regular users, costs $20 per month.

You might think that since GTP has only been around for a couple of months, there aren’t many custom ChatGPT options yet. However, this idea is far from reality. According to OpenAI, There are already more than 3 million chatbot options. The figure is, of course, impressive, as it demonstrates the enormous interest that exists in GTR.

“It’s been two months since we announced GPT, and users have already created over 3 million custom versions of ChatGPT. Many of them have shared their GPTs for others to use. Today we are starting to roll out the GPT Store to users. ChatGPT Plus , Team and Enterprise so they can find useful and popular GPTs.”

This success is largely due to easy to create your own version of ChatGPT. We tend to believe that being involved in the development of an AI-based system requires you to be an expert in advanced programming. However, OpenAI has managed to make creating your chatbot as easy as possible. You don’t even need basic knowledge of software development..
