Most of the products announced (and the price cuts) appear to be more about increasing lock-in to the OpenAI API platform, which is not surprising given increased competition in the space. The GPTs/GPT Agents and Assistants demos in particular showed that they are a black box within a black box within a black box that you can't port anywhere else.

I'm mixed on the presentation and will need to read the fine print on the API docs on all of these things, which have been updated just now: https://platform.openai.com/docs/api-reference

The pricing page has now updated as well: https://openai.com/pricing

Notably, the DALL-E 3 API is $0.04 per image which is an order of magnitude above everyone else in the space.

EDIT: One interesting observation with the new OpenAI pricing structure not mentioned during the keynote: finetuned ChatGPT 3.5 is now 3x of the cost of the base ChatGPT 3.5, down from 8x the cost. That makes finetuning a more compelling option.

The new assistants API looks both super-cool and (unfortunately) a recipe for all kinds of new applications that are vulnerable to prompt injection.

Do you see a way around prompt injection? It feels like any feature they release is going to be susceptible to it.
