š¬ Scene 1: ChatGPT becomes its own App Store
At DevDay 2025, OpenAI rolled out an SDK and app marketplace inside ChatGPT ā letting third parties build AI āappsā that live and transact within ChatGPT itself. Theyāre also baking in monetization: devs will be able to charge and users can authorize purchases from within the ecosystem.
š¬ Scene 2: Murati invests in ex-OpenAI team ā startup drama intensifies
Mira Murati, formerly OpenAI CTO, backed a new startup called Worktrace AI, founded by Angela Jiang (who once helped build ChatGPT). Itās a signal: the next wave of AI innovation may be spread across emerging ventures, not just the big names.
š¬ Scene 3: OpenAI + Broadcom ā Chips, but make it spicy
OpenAI has struck a major deal with Broadcom to co-design and deploy custom AI accelerators ā with 10 gigawatts of capacity planned by 2029. This gives OpenAI more control over compute, cutting dependence on Nvidia.
š¬ Scene 4: AI oversight gets real ā California raises the bar
California just passed a new law requiring AI platforms to clearly notify users theyāre talking to a chatbot (every few hours for minors), and to adopt safeguards for harmful content and self-harm responses.
