ChatGPT’s AI dominance just got even stronger as OpenAI announces the addition of both Peloton and Tripadvisor to the chatbot.

This is part of an expansion of ChatGPT’s abilities, allowing users to interact with apps from within the AI program. Simply mention one of the apps that has been integrated, and ChatGPT will be able to run a prompt that uses it.

In the example OpenAI has given for Peleton, it says “Peleton, can you recommend workouts for marathon training” with a response showing multiple Peleton classes and links out to the Peleton app to use them.

Back in early October, OpenAI announced that users would now be able to interact with a range of apps without leaving the ChatGPT platform. While Peloton and Tripadvisor are the two most recent, there are plenty that have already arrived.

Booking.com, Canva, Coursera, Expedia, Spotify, and more have all already arrived and been available to use for the past month.

Through these integrations, you can use ChatGPT prompts to make niche Spotify playlists, find the cheapest flights, and turn long Word documents into Canva slides.

For OpenAI, this will prove to be one of its most important feature updates, standing out from competitors, both in the AI and browsing spaces.

OpenAI has already announced partnerships with some of the biggest apps in the world, with more to come. OpenAI seems to be building an everything platform. Through these integrations, you could browse, shop, code, make presentations and more without ever leaving ChatGPT.

For companies like Google and Apple, which have long had a dominance on the tech market, these updates will be a concern, showing OpenAI’s goal to be the leading force in search and querying.

It is not clear what app integration will come next after these two, but the company has announced plans for 9 other apps this year, including Uber, AllTrails, Target, Instacart and DoorDash.

Going a step further, OpenAI plans to eventually launch its own app store, allowing developers to submit their own apps to be used from within the ChatGPT system.

This could open up a huge new market, competing with both the Apple and Play Stores with a new style of apps powered by ChatGPT.
