Seems like crickets in regards to GPT since they were first announced. I’m hesitant to put any time into building here if this is already a dead product. Anyone have a sense as to whether or not OpenAI is still working on GPTs?
GPTs are still very much a thing, but it’s unclear what is any revenue stream will come from them.
In general I feel the current target audience for development is,
- Individuals wanting to make something for themselves
- People who want to make something cool to share
- Large companies for whom the development costs associated with building a GPT won’t even register on there quarterly budget sheets
I didn’t know what the value proposition is in building a GPT for an individual dev.
The GPTs I’ve personally made are just conveniences for various workflows specific to me or just as experiments.
I haven’t yet found another GPT on the store I have any use for, any that do anything related to something in interested in doing are pretty bad at it, so I just end up making my own.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Since GPT users all got hit with the GPT-4o model to run them, the value has massively decreased. Same with “GPT-4” in ChatGPT now being GPT-4-Turbo as the fallback you’d employ, while trying to use custom instructions or memory to gain a bit of permanence to a behavior.
There is simply no point in trying to continue to use a GPT that employed a skill no longer there (of which I had several).
