Frankly, OpenAI seems to be losing its luster, and fast.

Plugins were a failure. GPTs are a little better, but I still don't see the product market fit. GPT-4 is still king, but not by that much any more. It's not even clear that they're doing great research, because they don't publish.

GPT-5 has to be incredibly good at this point, and I'm not sure that it will be.

I think OpenAI will do fine, but I have doubts about ChatGPT as a product. It’s just a chat UI, and I’m not convinced the UI will be chat 3 years from now.

Personally, the chat UI is the main limiting factor in my own adoption, because a) it’s not in the tool I’m trying to use, and b) it’s quicker for me to do the work than describe the work I need doing.

I interact with ChatGPT by voice pretty often, they have the best speech recognition I’ve ever seen. I can switch between languages (English, French, German) mid-sentence, think aloud, stop mid sentence, the correct what I just said, use highly technical terms (even describe code), I don’t even double check anymore because it’s almost always transcribed correctly. They can ~easily evolve the product to a more generalized conversation UX instead of just a text based chat.

This. Whisper is phenomenal. Have you tried the conversational mode? I would love to be able to use that in a more customized agent. I know you can use the conversation mode with a custom GPT but I’d prefer to write dynamic prompts programmatically. Would be great for a generalized personal assistant that can take notes, send/read email, texts, etc. could be a good filter on social notifications?

Though the TTS side has some trouble switching languages if only single words are embedded. A single German word inside an English sentence can really get butchered. More training needed on multilingual texts (and perhaps preserving italics). But anyways this is really only an issue for early language learning applications in my experience.

The conversational mode is fascinating. But it’s frustrating to use for the same reasons ChatGPT can be annoying: it doesn’t remember that well previous messages, you end up in weird Alzheimer-ish discussions where the interlocutor speaks perfectly but has the memory of a clownfish
