OpenAI opened up ChatGPT to a community of builders to build their own "GPTs" and the results are mixed. What is the usefulness of GPTs and why aren't they a revolutionary AI change.
I agree, custom GPTs are not revolutionary. However, they are an obvious evolution of ChatGPT. The addition of Assistants and how they can be integrated into custom LLM applications are more useful in my opinion. I think it's just an outcome of LLMs evolving from chat bots into agentic applications, from basic LLM chains into LLM agents. It makes sense for OpenAI to democratize chat agents, for both hype and research.
