All media outlets are comparing GPTs to the Apple app store revolution back then and essentially pushing entrepreneur to jump in and create something.
To create a mobile app you need years of experience and in certain areas a team and tousen of dollars in other areas. To create a GPT, you answer questions in a wizard a upload documents, something that can be done a replicated in minutes, where is the sale value in there? What I see is a wrapper on top on chatgpt (like many other AI indie projects)
This is not a critique, I see the potential for internal use in a company or where the value resides on private documents, but I really don’t see a new application marketplace revolution in here. What am I missing? Or it is just hype?
GPTs are a big deal for entrepreneurs mainly because they’re super flexible and can shake things up in a lot of industries. Think of them like a Swiss Army knife for business tasks - from chatting with customers to writing up reports, they can do a ton of stuff. While building an app takes a lot of skill and money, using GPTs is way easier and cheaper. It’s not just about making another chatbot; it’s about finding clever ways to use this tech that nobody’s thought of yet. That’s where the real goldmine is.
