Is GPT-4 About to Shake Up the App Store Model?

I have been playing around with some GPT-4 plugins recently (like the travel ones that book flights for you), and it got me thinking: Could this plugin ecosystem eventually replace the traditional app store model (like on iOS or Google Play)?

Right now, we switch between dozens of apps for random tasks (booking a hotel, checking the weather, ordering groceries), but if ChatGPT can handle all that directly, why would we need separate apps for each thing? It almost feels like a central AI OS.

  • Is that too futuristic of a prediction, or do you think it might be coming sooner than we think?

  • How do you see this impacting smaller developers does it open up new opportunities or create more competition under one AI umbrella?
