OpenAi wants to change everything with chatgpt. The chatbot of AI He no longer wants to be a chatbot of AI with whom we talk: he wants to do everything for us. And to do so the idea is to turn ChatgPT into something surprising: an operating system with which you will talk and talk to ask for things.
Why is it important. The developer event held yesterday by OpenAI allowed reveal a new application platform that wants to have ChatgPT as a central axis. The new philosophy makes all types of third -party services work directly within Chatgpt, which connects them and converts them in part of a promising user experience.
Surprising examples. During the presentation they were shown various cases of use in which a user simply planned a chatgpt trip and it connected to Booking or needed a training course and the chatbot served it with extra comments connecting to Coursera. OpenAI already has a preliminary version of the SDK that will allow developers create applications that can then interconnect with chatgpt As those first examples already do among those that are Spotify, Canva, Zillow, or the aforementioned Booking and Coursera.
It is not a “superapp”, it is something more. The search for a new surface has been for example a particular obsession of Elon Musk. Its objective was to convert X (formerly Twitter) into a surface similar to Wechat, which is that “tool to do everything” that triumphs in China. This SUPERAPP integrates a lot of own services, but also to minialyucations with which the user must operate quite manually. With chatgpt the intention is another.
Machine, do everything for me. With operating systems such as Windows or MacOS what we normally ask when doing something is “What app I need to perform this task?” With this apparent chatgpt transformation into an operating system we can simply tell the chatbot “I want to do this task” to complete it.
Second attempt. Openai already really tried something like that with the GPT store that launched in January 2024 and allowed to create “personalized GPTS”. Although the company presumed that they had been created More than three million of these GPTSthese “widgets” were nothing more than slight modifications of the Traditional Chatgpt assistant. Although the idea was promising That did not curdle, but this attempt is much more ambitious, especially because now Chatgpt wants to become a kind of orchestra director that connects to all kinds of services to do what the user needs at all times with simple prompts written or spoken.
A de facto operating system. Openai’s proposal resembles – at least, conceptually – to what we usually conceive as a modern operating system. Its fundamental function is to serve as an interface between the user and the machine, and here Chatgpt wants to be something similar. It doesn’t matter the hardware and application, because it is Chatgpt that interprets the user’s intention and then connects with the most appropriate applications for each task.
Monetization. In Openai they also mentioned that they are preparing the integration of His new agentic commerce protocol to allow payments between services and users. There was no talk of what kind of economic agreement signs Booking or Spotify when they interact with chatgpt, but it is evident that for these services the traffic that comes from chatgpt can be very valuable, and it is reasonable to think that Openai takes a commission if economic transactions are completed.
OpenAI VE Chatgpt as an operating system. Nick Turley, head of the Product of Chatgpt in Openai, explained In a subsequent conversation with means what was the vision of the company:
“What you will see during the next six months is an evolution of Chatgpt, which will go from being a really very useful application to become something that will look a little more to an operating system.”
Developers, come to me. For your idea to succeed, OpenAi needs be available globally. This tool now offers additional characteristics To, for example, connect it to Slack or use it as an SDK to integrate into other workflows.
Of the mouse and the keyboard to the conversation. Chatgpt raises that future we have been talking about: one in which instead of using mouse and keyboard to handle our computer We will use text and voice prompts. The interaction theoretically will have to think about how we want to do things – that will already be in charge of chatgpt and the services to which it connects – and more what things we want to do. It is a radical change that promises to get closer even more to do everything with machines … to depend more than ever on them.
