Sorry, I haven't been doing much in the AI space other than an occasional Ask GPT question once in a while.
Earlier quoted context omitted.
> you can't even ask it to spell words incorrectly Yes you can. https://chat.openai.com/share/cd28dc1e-cb50-45b0-986b-275d53...
Not going to lie, those spelling mistakes appeared very natural. Had they been part of an assignment by a 5-year-old, they would have looked quite authentic.
Is this a directory of people that have built something using OpenAI's API's? What exactly is being sold here if this is a store? Sorry, I haven't been doing much in the AI space other than an occasional Ask GPT question once in a while.
We’re rolling out custom versions of ChatGPT that you can create for a specific purpose—called GPTs. GPTs are a new way for anyone to create a tailored version of ChatGPT to be more helpful in their daily life, at specific tasks, at work, or at home—and then share that creation with others.
Starting today, you can create GPTs and share them publicly. Later this month, we’re launching the GPT Store, featuring creations by verified builders. Once in the store, GPTs become searchable and may climb the leaderboards. We will also spotlight the most useful and delightful GPTs we come across in categories like productivity, education, and “just for fun”. In the coming months, you’ll also be able to earn money based on how many people are using your GPT.
I received the same email. My assumption is that all of the GPTs in the store will still require a paid ChatGPT plus plan to access, but I have no way to confirm this. Does anyone have a source verifying whether this will be the case?

chatgpt is too lame for this to work you can't even ask it to spell words incorrectly if you ask gpt4 to spell words incorrectly, it fusses about it. i'm commenting on the fact that the company is too stuck on appearances
> write a short speech in the style of Donald Trump about the promises of space travel. Make lots of common spelling errors, favoring phonetic spelling over correct spelling
It gave me a decent response, but not as many spelling errors as I wanted. I replied with:
> Rewrite it with much worse spelling.
This is what I got:
> Ladeez and jentlemen, lemme tell ya, space travul, it's gunna be huuuge. We're talkin' 'bout the final frunteer, folks. An' we, the United States, we're gunna leed the way, like alwayz. We're gunna have the best rokkits, the best peeple, the best tek-noluhgee.

There's a lot of theories floating out there that OpenAI will make gpt-4-turbo free (or at least free when used via custom GPTs) so the default won't have to be 3.5-turbo (which is terrible at following system prompts and pales in quality compared to 4/turbo).
Now with custom gpts anyone can piggyback on that trust and just upload all that data to their servers.
Reason: The GPT-4 API is too expensive for most use cases. This encourages app developers to build custom GPTs, letting their users pay $20/month for a ChatGPT Plus subscription. To provide the same service in a standalone webapp using the GPT-4 API you'd have to charge ~$50/mo for your app only, and that's if you settle for ~50-75% margins (SaaS usually has much higher margins).
By the time GPT-4 level (proprietary or open source) models proliferate and come down in price, OpenAI will have GPT-4.5/GPT-5 for $20/mo in ChatGPT Plus, and it will be tough to ask users to pay to use a subpar model.
My bet was they would delay it. Well excited to see what people will build but also a little worried. Users have developed a lot of trust towards ChatGPT some are using it as a therapist, uploading a lot of secret info etc. Now with custom gpts anyone can piggyback on that trust and just upload all that data to their servers.
Can they? I thought custom GPTs were hosted entirely by OpenAI with no middle-man in-between? How would the creator of a custom GPT receive any user prompt data? AFAIK they're not even accessible through the API to build on top of (unlike the Assistants)
