Chatgpt, the generative AI of OpenAI with 800 million weekly users, can now make contact with common apps such as Spotify and Booking.com, the company announced on Monday.
Chief Executive Sam Altman announced the new tool for a crowd of enthusiastic developers gathered in San Francisco for the company’s annual “Developer Day”.
The new function, SDK apps, allows Chatgpt to communicate with different apps to select music, to search for real estate or explore hotel and flight booking sites.
Initial partners, including Booking.com, Canva, Coursera, Figma, Expedia, Spotify and Zillow, were launched on Monday in markets where their services are active.
Extra partners, including Uber, Alltrails and Doordash, are expected later this year.
However, the function is not yet available in Europe, where regulations for the use of data-intensive AI tools are stricter.
The movement marks a significant expansion of the possibilities of chatgpt and combines traditional interactive elements such as maps and playlists with conversation AI.
For example, users can ask ‘Spotify, make a playlist for my party this Friday’ and let the music streaming app intervene in the chat.
Chatgpt can also propose apps when they are relevant to the conversation.
For example, if a user discusses about buying a new house, ChatGpt can focus on the Zillow app to browse lists that match their budget on an interactive map in chatgpt.
“We had to make the models better. The models are now there,” he said, adding that the company had selected “a few active early partnerships”. “
Greg Brockman, the president of OpenAi, said that the work that would generate benefits for companies in the self-required gold medal performance of his models at the international mathematical Olympiade in other ways.
OpenAi and other technical giants, such as alphabet and Microsoft, have praised Enterprise AI deals to justify huge peaks in the expenditure, although the return in industry has not so far linked to investments, according to recent surveys.
The Chatgpt maker outlined ambitious new plans in the past month to build $ 1 trillion or more computer capacity and launched a viral AI-Video-generating app called Sora, which shot at Apple’s app rankings at the top.
All this has so far made a huge loss of loss of money. Altman said it was “not in my top 10 worries, but of course we have to be very profitable one day”, while Brockman underlined that OpenAi was “dedicated to building the best business platform”.
Monday’s movements are the latter in a stream of announcements for OpenAi, which caused the modern AI -Boem with the launch of Chatgpt about three years ago.
Many of Altman’s ambitions are daring and expensive, even according to the Silicon Valley standards, which causes some worries to arouse with tech investors about whether AI investments are a bubble.
Altman said during the question answer session that many areas of the AI industry are ‘a little bubbles’, but that ‘real value will be created’.
