OpenAI has officially launched its GPT Store, which will let a small set of users and official partners to share customized chatbots with the community.
The platform will not be available to the general public, according to the corporation. You must be subscribed to ChatGPT Plus ($20 / £16 per month), Enterprise, or the newly established Teams plan. When you purchase the subscription, you will gain access to a range of GPTs in several categories. These include writing, programming, and artistic creation; some will even offer lifestyle guidance. One, in particular, can assist you in refining designs for a tattoo you are considering obtaining.
The GPT Store was first introduced in November at the company’s inaugural DevDay conference. It was exhibited alongside OpenAI’s then-new chatbot creation service. The store was planned to open later that month, but it was postponed several times, most likely as a result of CEO Sam Altman’s abrupt dismissal and reinstatement.
Curated chatbot
Although the average person cannot check out chatbots, you can visit the store’s page right now to see what is offered. Make sure you are not logged into your account; if you are, you will receive a notice asking you to subscribe to ChatGPT Plus. Each week, OpenAI will spotlight four GPTs at the top of the page. At the time of writing, AllTrails, Consensus, Code Tutor, and Books are all recommended.
The first one, AllTrails, will recommend natural pathways for you to explore. Consensus, formerly known as ResearchGPT, offers access to 200 million academic papers and can help you with your complex science queries. Khan Academy’s Code Tutor will review your recent computer code and provide advice on how to improve it. Finally, Books is the most mysterious of the bunch. Its description is obscure, but if we had to guess, we’d say it recommends books.
Below that, there are a handful of more lists highlighting chatbots that are currently popular in the community and those created by OpenAI’s own staff. There are plans to develop a revenue model that would allow users to profit from their inventions. Creators will “be paid based on user engagement” for their chatbots. There are currently little details. All we know for now is that it will be released in the United States in Q1 2024.
Follow the rules
Anyone with a subscription can build a GPT. According to OpenAI, no coding skills are required, but you must adhere to usage regulations and brand guidelines. It wants to keep everything clean.
You may read the regulations on the official website, but to give you an idea, users cannot: A) violate people’s privacy, B) construct an AI that may endanger the well-being of others, or C) use the platform to disseminate falsehoods. Break the restrictions, and the corporation will limit your capacity to share or profit your work. If you encounter any of these rogues on the GPT Store, OpenAI requests that you report them.
If you have a creation, you may share it by saving it to GPT and then selecting Everyone. This provides everyone on the platform access. Once completed, select “verify your Builder Profile” from the Settings menu. After you’ve completed all of these steps, your chatbot should appear on the storefront.
