OpenAI plans to disrupt app stores with new ChatGPT features

OpenAI announced plans to change how software is discovered and used during its Dev Day event on Tuesday.

ChatGPT becomes an app launcher

The company intends to turn the chatbot interface into a surface for launching applications. Users will receive suggestions within their conversation flow when the system recognizes a tool that can help complete a task. Once suggested, a user can connect the app and begin using it directly inside ChatGPT.

New identity and allowance rules

OpenAI introduced a method for people to bring their ChatGPT identity with them to other platforms. This update also allows users to apply their existing AI allowance when working in third-party applications. The company says the chatbot currently has 1.2 billion weekly users.

Plugin architecture expands capabilities

The expansion of ChatGPT's plugin architecture now supports extensions for building interactive panels. Developers can create these tools so users work with them while chatting. This development lets agents and people alike discover, launch, and use software within the interface.
