ChatGPT Development—Shifting from Plugins to GPTs

-



ChatGPT Plugins Being Phased Out

ChatGPT plugins, once essential add-ons for enhancing the capabilities of OpenAI's ChatGPT AI-powered large language model (LLM), are being phased out in favor of Generative Pre-trained Transformers (GPT). Starting March 19, the installation of new plugins and initiation of new conversations via existing ones will cease, though ongoing plugin interactions will remain active until April 9, allowing users a transition period.


It's Simpler to Create GPTs

The shift from plugins to GPTs comes as developers find it simpler to create GPTs, reflecting a preference among both users and developers for the latter, evident from the thousands of GPTs compared to the limited number of plugins. GPTs match plugins in functionality and introduce new features requested by users.


GPTs Are Self-Sufficient AI Models

ChatGPT Plugins facilitated direct interaction with external services and APIs, extending ChatGPT's abilities beyond its inherent functionalities and allowing for customized experiences. Conversely, GPTs are self-sufficient AI models capable of generating content, answering queries, and more, without relying on external data sources. They offer built-in capabilities like browsing and image creation, support a broader range of tasks, and incorporate advancements in AI for improved performance. Additionally, the GPT Store enables access to specialized models for specific tasks, further enhancing the utility of GPTs over plugins.


Gives Users an Improved Experience

This transition underscores a significant evolution in AI-driven tools, promising users an improved experience with enhanced capabilities and ease of use.

The New ChatGPT Reason Feature: What It Is and Why You Should Use It Offers More Than Just a Simple Answer ChatGPT continues to evolve, constantly introducing new features that make user interactions more tailored and insightful. One of the latest additions is the Reason option, which you can access through the slash menu. At its core, this feature gives you more control over the depth of responses, specifically when you’re looking for more than just a simple answer. In this article, we’ll explore what the Reason feature is, where it originated, why it matters, and how you can make the most of it. What Is the Reason Feature? The Reason option prompts ChatGPT to provide a detailed, structured explanation that dives into the reasoning behind an answer. It focuses on giving a logical breakdown of how the conclusion was reached, rather than just providing a surface-level response. Essentially, it’s a way of saying, "I want to understand not just the answer, but the reasoning behind it...

The Reasoning Chain in DeepSeek R1: A Glimpse into AI’s Thought Process Imagine a user interacting with DeepSeek R1, searching for documentation on the model. They enter the following prompt: User: Where is user documentation for DeepSeek-R1? DeepSeek R1 - Reasoning Chain Output: Okay, the user is asking about DeepSeek-R1 again. I remember they previously asked for user documentation, and I provided some general steps, but now they want a description. Let me check if there’s any new information post my knowledge cutoff in July 2024. Wait, DeepSeek-R1 wasn’t in my training data up to July 2024. But maybe it’s a model they released after that. The user might be referring to an AI model by DeepSeek, given the context of previous questions. In their previous interaction, I mentioned checking official sources like GitHub or the DeepSeek website. Now, they want a description. Since I don’t have specific data on R1, I should proceed carefully. Maybe there’s some informat...
