OpenAI just Murdered Apple & Google 💀

This week, OpenAI announced Plugins. And it changes everything.

With Plugins, ChatGPT can now not only browse the Internet (finally!) but also use your favorite apps.

This reminds me of when Steve Jobs launched the App Store. Some of the most intelligent people dropped everything they were doing and built incredible businesses that completely transformed society. Today, ChatGPT is doing this all over again.

The craziest thing about this is those plugins are created without any code. You can write exactly what you want in plain English, and the AI takes care of the rest. This is an entirely new approach to computing.

This is the computing platform that Mark Zuckerberg and Meta were so desperately looking for. Turns out it’s not the Metaverse, it’s AI.

We’re witnessing OpenAI become the next Apple, where every new version of ChatGPT is the latest iPhones, and Plugins are the AppStore.

Exciting times.
