Moving on from last year’s fiasco that led to theSam Altman firing and rehiring, OpenAI recently announced thatits long-awaited GPT Store is now open for business. Like theMicrosoft Store, the GPT Store is a convenient and central location where users can share their custom chatbots.
OpenAIlaunched a GPT Builder Program last year in November, and according to the company, users have created approximately 3 million GPT bots. The GPT Store will feature a wide array of custom bots, including GPTs that fall under categories like DALL·E, writing, research, programming, education, and lifestyle. The company also highlighted its plans to boost the discoverability of useful custom GPTs via the GPT Store.
The GPT Store will provide users with a public platform to open display and push the visibility of their creations and custom bots based onChatGPT. Unfortunately, only ChatGPT Plus, Team, and Enterprise users can make and use custom GPTs.

The platform will provide an avenue for creators to gain compensation for their inventions. It’s worth noting that compensation will be primarily based on user engagement. This plan is expected to roll out and take effect within the first quarter of this year.
