> I wonder how much money I could make making "GPTs" full time I don’t get why people are thinking along these lines at all. Like, if you don’t own and control the LLM yourself, what makes you so sure OpenAI will allow you to make money at all? They could make advertising externally or hosting external marketplaces against the TOS. They could copy your GPT and put their “official” version at the top of the store page…

ChatGPT is the new iPhone. Dealing with a walled-garden app store is never a great experience, but we'll do it because that's where the users are

I just feel like the big tech companies have gotten better at capturing the value of their platforms. It’s not the same as it was in 2008. I don’t think we’re going to see anything like the “manage an indie app as a lifestyle business” boom we saw back then, and I expect the consolidation that killed off most of those indie devs will happen way faster this time.

> We’ve made ChatGPT Plus fresher and simpler to use > Finally, ChatGPT Plus now includes fresh information up to April 2023. We’ve also heard your feedback about how the model picker is a pain. Starting today, no more hopping between models; everything you need is in one place. You can access DALL·E, browsing, and data analysis all without switching. You can also attach files to let ChatGPT search PDFs and other doc…

The roll outs are quite slow. Sometimes it takes weeks for them to release a feature to my account while I know others who get access immediately. I understand that it helps them control the quality of ChatGPT, but I wish I got access earlier as I have been subscribed since the beginning.

I wonder how much money I could make making "GPTs" full time. Barrier to entry is nonexistent so I imagine highest revenue ones if this becomes a serious thing people use will be advertised externally or have some proprietary info/access.

I'm more confused how the revenue share works. Do they get part of my ChatGPT subscription fee? Am I paying extra? Per bot? Per amount of time I consult with the bot?

I think it must be based on usage (some GPTs could be using more credits than others)

One can come up with all sorts of ideas like this, but building it will be a matter of slow iterations at prompt engineering in a mixture of natural language and data structures and will be at the whim of changing APIs, including the backing ChatGPT model. Sounds messy, hard to manage, hard to test...or am I missing what the actual process will be for creating one of these?

Worry not, surely there will be GPT for creating GPTs.

Good intuition, it was in the demo. Chat with an agent to config a new GPT. Then make the GPT available to others if you wish. Same functionality is exposed via API IIRC.

A species doesn't automatically get more altruistic towards other species once it gets smarter. Look at how many species humanity drove to extinction.

True humans have been remarkably ignorant throughout our short history. Though you might notice though that most folks dont go around abusing animals or hurting other people on purpose. Take from that what you will. Give this essay a read if youre interested in good faith arguments about the danger of AI at the current state of development. https://1a3orn.com/sub/essays-propaganda-or-science.html Maybe together as a…

I know this piece. Here is a better article by a top biologist and CRISPR pioneer:

But anyway, that's just human terrorists using future AIs to build biological weapons. But the much greater danger is superintelligent AI causing human extinction by itself.
