OpenAI Shares Plans for Turning ChatGPT into an Operating System, Forges More Partnerships

OpenAI unveiled several new partnerships to incorporate its AI products across diverse industries at its developer conference—aiming to drive strong momentum among consumers to its enterprise business.

"You should expect a huge focus from us on really leaning into enterprise," CEO Sam Altman told journalists at a press conference following his keynote at San Francisco's Fort Mason Center.

The company revealed a plethora of collaborations with companies including Spotify, Zillow, and Mattel, along with a partnership with AMD that will see the company supply chips as part of an agreement to team up on building AI infrastructure.

“This partnership is a major step in building the compute capacity needed to realize AI’s full potential,” said Altman. “AMD’s leadership in high-performance chips will enable us to accelerate progress and bring the benefits of advanced AI to everyone faster.”

OpenAI showcased how various apps could plug into ChatGPT and allow a user to ask questions or perform tasks in the app. According to Reuters, one engineer gave a live demo showing how someone could use ChatGPT to generate a readymade playlist in Spotify, or ask Zillow to narrow down a list of properties to just show those with three bedrooms and three bathrooms.

Executives said this was the start of a broader vision of transforming ChatGPT into a central portal where users can access a broader range of services.

"What you're going to see over the next six months is an evolution of ChatGPT from an app that is really, really useful into something that feels a little bit more like an operating system," ChatGPT head Nick Turley said.

Greg Brockman, OpenAI's president, underscored that OpenAI was "committed to building the best enterprise platform."
