The rumored product centers on ChatGPT’s new image generator, and could bring in much-needed data and subscription revenue. Could it also be Sam Altman’s personal megaphone?
OpenAI is reportedly working on an X-style social network.
The project is still in the early stages, but OpenAI has built an internal prototype, according to The Verge. It’s focused on ChatGPT’s new image generator, which went viral and boosted user numbers and subscription signups.
It’s no surprise OpenAI is looking for ways to build off this success, but details are scant. One big question is whether OpenAI will release the social network as a separate app or within ChatGPT. Perhaps it will follow past OpenAI prototypes, such as SearchGPT, which began as a separate URL before debuting within ChatGPT under the slightly revised name ChatGPT Search.
