OpenAI has expanded its ChatGPT plugin support to enhance its capabilities and provide access to up-to-date information. The initial plugins include a web browser, code interpreter, and an open-source retrieval plugin for custom knowledge bases. Alpha access to these plugins is being gradually rolled out, with plans to increase availability over time.
Language models have their limitations, as they solely rely on the training data available to them. However, plugins can be used to provide models with access to more recent, personalized, or specific information. Furthermore, plugins allow AI to execute secure and controlled actions on behalf of users. OpenAI is currently hosting two plugins, a web browser and a code interpreter, in addition to releasing the code for a knowledge base retrieval plugin. This allows developers to expand ChatGPT's knowledge with their own data.
- Browsing - The browsing plugin enables the AI chatbot to access information from the internet, thereby enriching its knowledge base and enabling it to provide more accurate information. By using this plugin, you can access information from the internet that goes beyond the corpus ChatGPT was trained on. Consequently, ChatGPT will be capable of fetching up-to-date information on any subject of your choice. Incorporating browsing capabilities will certainly enhance our experience of using ChatGPT.
- Code Interpreter - The code interpreter plugin, on the other hand, allows ChatGPT to utilize Python and handle file uploads and downloads in a secure environment. The experimental ChatGPT model embedded in this plugin operates in a sandboxed environment with access to some disk space. As a result, users can upload files, and perform various modifications such as resizing, grayscale conversion, tinting, and conduct data analysis using ChatGPT. You can create visualizations from the data you uploaded. You can even solve math problems, and more. So overall the code interpreter plugin is useful for solving mathematical problems, data analysis, data visualization, and file format conversion.
- Retrieval - OpenAI's open-source retrieval plugin provides ChatGPT with access to personal or organizational information sources, such as files, notes, emails, or public documentation. This plugin can be hosted by developers, who can deploy their version and register it with ChatGPT. It uses OpenAI embeddings and supports several vector databases, allowing for efficient indexing and searching of documents.
- Third Party - The integration of plugins enables ChatGPT to communicate with external applications and interact with developer-defined APIs, significantly enhancing its capabilities and allowing it to perform various tasks. Some of these tasks include fetching real-time information, such as sports scores, stock market updates, or the latest news headlines, accessing knowledge-base data, like company documents or personal notes, and executing actions on behalf of users, such as booking flights or placing food orders.
As per OpenAI's announcements, The initial set of plugins is sourced from various companies, those are listed below.
- Expedia
- FiscalNote
- Instacart
- KAYAK
- Klarna
- Milo
- OpenTable
- Shopify
- Slack
- Speak
- Wolfram
- Zapier
Improved Capabilities
ChatGPT is capable of accomplishing several tasks with the integration of plugins, including fetching real-time information such as sports scores, stock market updates, or the latest news headlines, accessing knowledge-base data like company documents or personal notes, and performing actions on behalf of users such as booking flights or ordering food.
Accessability
Users and developers who have signed up for the plugin alpha waitlist will soon gain access to the plugin features. Initially, access to these features will be restricted to a chosen group of developers and ChatGPT Plus users. However, there are plans to gradually increase access to the plugin alpha over time.
