Conversation: OpenAI launches apps inside of ChatGPT Crunch

A: Hey there! Guess what? Did you know that OpenAI is launching something new for ChatGPT users starting Monday?
B: No, what's it about?

A: It lets us access interactive applications from companies like Booking.com, Spotify, Figma, Coursera, and more right inside our chats!
B: That sounds cool! How do we use it?

A: You can just type the names of the apps in ChatGPT, for example, "Figma, turn this sketch into a workable diagram". Or you can ask something like "Coursera, teach me about machine learning".
B: Wow, that could be really useful! What else?

A: Well, there's also an interactive map from Zillow to search for apartments in your area within a specific price range. Plus, it'll suggest helpful apps like Spotify when you need a playlist or something like that.
B: This is amazing! When can I try it out?

A: It starts on Monday! But they're also launching a developer-facing toolkit to build these apps. They made the announcement at their annual conference, DevDay 2025.
B: So, what does the CEO say about this new feature?

A: He says it'll make ChatGPT even better for us by helping us be more productive, inventive, and learn faster in our daily lives. It's their latest attempt to build an ecosystem of apps around ChatGPT.
B: That sounds like a big change. What about privacy concerns?

A: They say developers must collect only the minimum data they need and be transparent about permissions. But it's not clear if they'd have access to our entire conversation or just the prompt that summoned up the app.
B: I hope they keep it simple and transparent. This is pretty exciting! Thanks for letting me know about this!

A: No problem, glad to share! Can't wait to try it out myself!
