This is a big deal for openai. Been working with homegrown toolkits and langchain, the open source version of this, for a number of months and the ability to call out to vectorstores, serpapis, etc, and chaining together generations and data-retrieval really unlocks the power of the LLMs. That being said, I'd never build anything dependent on these plugins. OpenAI and their models rule the day today, but who knows wh…

Honestly I suspect for anyone technical `langchain` will always be the way to go. You just have so much more control and the amount of "tools" available will always be greater.

The only think that scares me a little bit is that we are letting these LLMs write and execute code on our machines. For now the worst that could happen is some bug doing something unexpected, but with GPT-9 or -10 maybe it will start hiding backdoors or running computations that benefit itself rather than us.

I know it feels far fetched but I think its something we should start thinking about...

"Plugin developers who have been invited off our waitlist can use our documentation to build a plugin for ChatGPT, which then lists the enabled plugins in the prompt shown to the language model as well as documentation to instruct the model how to use each. The first plugins have been created by Expedia, FiscalNote, Instacart, KAYAK, Klarna, Milo, OpenTable, Shopify, Slack, Speak, Wolfram, and Zapier."

The waitlist mafia has begun. Insiders get all the whitespace.

> We’ve implemented initial support for plugins in ChatGPT. Plugins are tools designed specifically for language models with safety as a core principle, and help ChatGPT access up-to-date information, run computations, or use third-party services.

That is the most awkward insertion of a phrase about safety I've seen in quite some time.

Now just one step away from charging businesses for access to the chatGPT users.

Instant links from inside chatGPT to your website are the new equivalent of Google search ads.

i have the same question as a data provider

Any idea how this is done? I.e. is it just priming the underlying GPT model with plugin information additionally to the user input ("you can ask Wolfram Alpha by replying 'hey wolfram: ...' ") and performing API calls when the GPT model returns certain keywords ('hey wolfram: $1')?

I wonder, can these instructions be revealed with prompt injection?

Smart way to remain the funnel owner. Let everyone build a plugin, before they integrate your product into theirs.

Let insiders & preferred users build a plugin, then, slowly, everyone else on the waitlist
