Listen "My GPTs, and avoiding the OpenAI tidal wave as a founder"
Episode Synopsis
In this conversation, discussions revolve around the recent OpenAI Dev Day, the Reflect note taking app, and how founders should internalize the "threat" and partnership opportunities with OpenAI. Fraser & Nabeel discuss that it's still "fart app and flashlight" early days for developers to truly utilize the capabilities of technologies like ChatGPT. The conversation then shifts to Reflect, a note-taking app that utilises AI to optimise features like speech-to-text and backlinking. The speakers debate whether one company can excel in both consumer-facing products and developer platforms, highlighting how OpenAI is in a unique position to potentially 'run the table' across various booming markets.
