Apps have arrived inside ChatGPT
Another big moment in the company's offerings – this is where ChatGPT has gone from a tool to a platform. Now inside ChatGPT you can ask it to directly ask an app to do something. So, you can ask Spotify to create a playlist for you that is 150bpm for a 45 minute run. Or you can ask it to research hotels in Paris on Booking.com, and it'll return real results you can then book with a click.
You don't need to search through those sites or apps, ChatGPT becomes the interface for that. The apps at launch are selected by OpenAI and more will be added over time including retailer Target, restaurant booking app OpenTable, and Uber. They’ll also be adding them for the EU users "soon".
Travel and personal assistant type use cases seem to be the top priority for this launch.
Amazon is launching a prescription vending machine
It owns a doctors clinic network in the USA called One Medical, and inside those locations will be a vending machine for commonly prescribed medicines, dispensed by Amazon Pharmacy. It'll debut in Los Angeles starting in December.
How it works: after the patient visits the doctor, they can choose to send their prescription to the vending machine. You then login to your app, scan it, and away you go. It'll have commonly prescribed medications including antibiotics, inhalers, and blood pressure medications, with each location's inventory selected based on needs (I smell some AI here!). Controlled substances and medications requiring refrigeration are not available via the vending machine.
