In an unprecedented move marking the entrance of 2024, ChatGPT's creator OpenAI has announced it will launch its own GPT store—the first of its kind—the week starting January 7. The launch was initially planned for late 2023 as per their announcement on OpenAI DevDay, but was delayed.
Why should this concern you?
Gen Z and Millennial professionals, in particular, have set their sights on establishing career stability and financial freedom, particularly for this new year. The threats posed by the cost of living crisis and job insecurity, and the desire to advance their careers and establish relevant thought leadership, has led the younger workforce to seek out side hustles. Additionally, AI, and particularly generative AI, is a critical skill for young professionals who desire to stand out in a competitive job market. In fact, the number of LinkedIn job postings citing generative AI or ChatGPT as a desired skill has sharply increased over 2023.
Now imagine what you can accomplish as a young professional with a combination of GPT skills and building a side hustle that generates passive income? Imagine the boost it could provide to your career.
With the new GPT store, it will allow creators to create, monetize, and share their customized GPT creations with the world, much like an app marketplace. Think of it like the App Store for AppleAAPL -0.2%, or Google Play Store for Google apps, only this one will be the AI store for GPTs.
