OpenAI, the renowned AI company, is reportedly in the process of developing an AI app store that will allow developers to sell their AI models on top of OpenAI’s technology. This app store will enable entrepreneurs and creators to build daughter AI systems within a marketplace to capture value. It is an attempt to position itself as a platform upon which future mini-AI systems will run. OpenAI’s CEO, Sam Altman, hinted at the development of the app store at a London Developers’ meeting last month.
This new app store will provide a significant boost to generative AI by enabling massive phase penetration and diffusion into various sectors and markets. With the ecosystem, makers will reach users, and users will reach makers, as the AI app store creates a convergence where one can download whatever they want.
This app store is still in early development and would be an excellent opportunity for AI developers and enthusiasts worldwide. OpenAI is offering funding to ensure that these entities congregate around it, and this is a significant opportunity for Africa’s startups to join the Tekedia Capital Syndicate and invest in Africa’s finest startups.
The launch of OpenAI’s app store will be a game-changer for the AI community, offering enormous opportunities for entrepreneurs and investors to capture significant value. It will be interesting to see how this new marketplace will shape the future of AI and how OpenAI plans to maintain its position as a leader in the industry.
