ChatGPT users should expect another feature update from OpenAI now. The artificial intelligence (AI) company has begun rolling out access to GPTs, its purpose-built mini chatbots, globally. Even those on the free tier of ChatGPT can interact with these chatbots and use them for specific tasks. The company's GPT store has a large number of chatbots that can help users with writing, productivity, research and analysis, programming, or just conversations in specific styles. Several software companies have also created and published brand-specific GPTs.
OpenAI extends GPTs to all users
Prior to the OpenAI Spring Update event hosted earlier this month, GPTs used to be a premium feature accessible only to paid subscribers to the platform. However, during the event, the company announced that these chatbots would be available to everyone soon. Gadgets 360 was finally able to access the GPTs through the GPT Store on Thursday. The feature should be rolling out to all users worldwide in the coming days.
There is a caveat, however. While free ChatGPT users can access and interact with GPTs, they will not be able to create new chatbots. The ability to create new GPTs with text prompts and optionally a specific database has not been extended to the free tier.
It should be noted that GPTs are not general conversational chatbots like ChatGPT. They are often limited in scope and will not be able to answer a wide range of queries. However, users can get more accurate answers since they act as small language models.
Interesting GPTs to use
While there's a huge catalog to choose from, we've found some interesting options for you to try. The first is Adobe Express from Adobe, you can design social posts, brochures and more with Adobe Express. The chatbot can also generate images with specific text requests. Khan Academy's Tutor Me chatbot is another useful tool. It can help users with math, science, and humanities homework by helping them solve problems instead of solving them for them.
Other interesting GPTs are Canva, Code Copilot, Cartoonize Yourself, as well as OpenAI's Data Analyst and Planty. So far, we haven't found any interaction limits with these GPTs, but we can't confirm their absence either.
