OpenAI adds an app store to ChatGPT

PCWorld reports that OpenAI has launched an app store for ChatGPT, allowing developers to submit applications that integrate directly with the AI chatbot platform. Users can access apps through the sidebar's'Apps' button and interact with them by typing '@appname' during conversations, with categories including Featured, Lifestyle, and Productivity. This expansion transforms ChatGPT into a more comprehensive platform where developers can even link apps to external sites for purchasing physical goods. OpenAI just announced in a blog post that you can now connect ChatGPT with even more apps. In fact, OpenAI has also opened things up for developers to submit their own apps for review, which can then be published in ChatGPT's app library. You'll be able to access the ChatGPT app store via the Apps button in the sidebar of ChatGPT. The apps in the store are divided into Featured, Lifestyle, and Productivity categories. Once you've linked an app to the chatbot, you'll be able to use it by typing in your ChatGPT conversations, and the app in question will then be able to help you with things like booking reservations and ordering food.
