Recently, I talked to ChatGPT about my lunch options. It gave me a few good ideas on what to eat and where to go. Not exactly what I was looking for, but in time it could get there. OpenAI and others are building the next developer ecosystems, the new Android and iOS if you will.
I can easily imagine starting my day by putting on my earbuds with some kind of generative model, right along with my glasses.
Then in theory I could have one interface to consume all my morning needs. The possibilities will be endless:
- GPT for a meditation app think Headspace.
- GPT for a news app think Inshorts.
- GPT for a commute app think Cabify/Uber.
- GPT for a food delivery from apps think Glovo/Doordash.
- GPT for an audiobook app think Audible.
The list can go on and on...
Going ahead, future products might not be traditional apps anymore. They will be APIs, built to integrate seamlessly with GPT models. If you’re thinking of developing a new idea, consider how your APIs can integrate with all the available GPTs instead of focusing solely on building an app around it. That's where the value will truly lie.
