Clear the stage, folks: it’s time to say ‘Bye-bye’ to old pals, the ChatGPT extensions. New ChatGPT plugins changed the game and augmented the user experience.
What are ChatGPT Plugins?
ChatGPT Plugins are software additions that add specific features to an existing computer program and enable its customization. In the context of ChatGPT, these plugins expand the functionality of the AI model, enabling it to perform more specific tasks or interact with other software in new ways. In other words, plugins are extending the capabilities of ChatGPT beyond its initial design.
How do ChatGPT Plugins Differ from Chrome Extensions?
Plugins and Chrome extensions are similar in a way as they add new features to their platforms.
The key aspect of the Chrome extensions is to enhance the functionality of the Google Chrome browser. They’re built on web technologies such as HTML, JavaScript, and CSS.
Similarly, ChatGPT plugins are designed to extend the capabilities of the ChatGPT AI model and can be used in a variety of contexts where the AI model is implemented. They’re not tied to a specific web browser.
