ChatGPT now has initial plugin support from OpenAI. Plugins are tools that help ChatGPT access up-to-date information, run computations, or use third-party services. They are designed specifically for language models with safety as a core principle.

Since OpenAI introduced ChatGPT, users have been requesting plugins (and many developers are exploring similar concepts) since they enable a broad array of potential use cases. Therefore, following OpenAI's idea of iterative deployment, the business is gradually releasing ChatGPT Plugins.

Initially for plugin authors and ChatGPT users. Engineers are excited to build a community that will shape the future paradigm of human-AI interaction.
