ChatGPT launches Apps beta: 8 big apps you can now use in ChatGPT

chatgpt logo

ChatGPT has launched its app directory — meaning you can now connect to some of your favorite services without leaving the OpenAI platform.

The idea is that moving forward, the chatbot can suggest apps or you can easily access them (using the @ command) during a conversation. For instance, if you connect Adobe Photoshop to your account, you will then be able to utilize Photoshop tools when making image requests. In our testing, this works even if you don't have an existing Photoshop account.

"Apps extend ChatGPT conversations by bringing in new context and letting users take actions like order groceries, turn an outline into a slide deck, or search for an apartment," wrote OpenAI in an announcement for the app directory.

In addition, app developers will be able to create experiences within ChatGPT.

"Developers can use the Apps SDK — now in beta — to build chat-native experiences that bring context and action directly into ChatGPT," OpenAI explained.

While some commentators have referred to the new Apps beta as a ChatGPT app store, at this time, it's more of an app directory. However, in the "Looking Ahead" section of its announcement post, OpenAI does note that this tool could eventually "expand the ways developers can reach users and monetize their work."

Apps will, of course, be added over time. But here's a look at some of the apps you can now access right in ChatGPT. You can also check out the directory at chatgpt.com/apps.

1. Spotify

The idea is that you can talk with ChatGPT and it'll use Spotify to fire up the correct music for your long run, dinner party, or whatever the mood might be.

2. Apple Music

Well...the idea is pretty much the same as Spotify.

3. DoorDash

Say you're using ChatGPT to discover recipes, the thought is that DoorDash can then have the exact ingredients delivered.

4. Instacart

So...pretty much what we said about DoorDash.

5. Tripadvisor

If you're using ChatGPT to help plan a vacation or travel, then you can book through TripAdvisor right on the OpenAI platform.

6. Expedia

So, again...see Tripadvisor above. Oh, and the Booking.com app is available, too.

7. Target

This might prove dangerous for the impulse buyers out there, but Target is integrated into ChatGPT. So if, say, ChatGPT recommends a product, you can then buy it via Target.

8. Zillow

Finding the right place to live isn't easy. If you use ChatGPT for help, then you can use the Zillow app right on the platform to schedule tours, see photos, and more.

It appears that more and more major apps will be integrated into ChatGPT moving forward. It'll be interesting to see how the integration experience goes for users — and if it becomes a part of their daily life.

To see the full list of apps included in the new ChatGPT Apps beta, head to the ChatGPT app directory.

Instagram accidentally reinstated Pornhub’s banned account

After years of on-and-off temporary suspensions, Instagram permanently banned Pornhub’s account in September. Then, for a short period of time this weekend, the account was reinstated. By Tuesday, it was permanently banned again. “This was done in error,” an Instagram spokesperson told TechCrunch. “As we’ve said previously, we permanently disabled this Instagram account for repeatedly violating our policies.” Instagram’s content guidelines prohibit  nudity and sexual solicitation . A Pornhub spokesperson told TechCrunch, though, that they believe the adult streaming platform’s account did not violate any guidelines. Instagram has not commented on the exact reasoning for the ban, or which policies the account violated. It’s worrying from a moderation perspective if a permanently banned Instagram account can accidentally get switched back on. Pornhub told TechCrunch that its account even received a notice from Instagram, stating that its ban had been a mistake (that message itse...

Watch Aidy Bryant *completely* lose it as 'SNL' roasts political pundits

On Saturday Night Live , there are breaks and then there's whatever happened here. The Season 45 premiere featured a sketch that was meant to expose the empty noisemaking of political punditry on TV. But part of the joke involved a series of quick costume changes, and some weirdness during one of those switches led to a complete and total breakdown. Aidy Bryant, the segment's host, couldn't take it. She manages to keep it together until what appears to be an accidental wide shot exposes some of the magic as we see a woman who's probably a member of the SNL wardrobe crew fiddling with Aidy's costume.

MVP versus EVP: Is it time to introduce ethics into the agile startup model?

Anand Rao Contributor Share on Twitter Anand Rao is global head of AI at PwC . The rocket ship trajectory of a startup is well known: Get an idea, build a team and slap together a minimum viable product (MVP) that you can get in front of users. However, today’s startups need to reconsider the MVP model as artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) become ubiquitous in tech products and the market grows increasingly conscious of the ethical implications of AI augmenting or replacing humans in the decision-making process. An MVP allows you to collect critical feedback from your target market that then informs the minimum development required to launch a product — creating a powerful feedback loop that drives today’s customer-led business. This lean, agile model has been extremely successful over the past two decades — launching thousands of successful startups, some of which have grown into billion-dollar companies. However, building high-performing product...
