What The GPTs?! Understanding AI's Most Powerful Tools

When you hear "GPT," your mind might go straight to conversational AI or chatbots, or not if you’re a hermit.

But there’s a lot more to it. Enter Explore GPTs offered by ChatGPT—specialized versions of GPT models that act like apps, designed to handle a variety of tasks beyond just generating text. These AI-powered tools are revolutionizing how we interact with technology by putting practical, task-oriented AI right at your fingertips.

If you want to learn more, which you know you do, keep reading.

What Are Explore GPTs?

Explore GPTs are essentially apps you can find on ChatGPT.

They are built on top of GPT models, each designed for a specific purpose. Think of them as AI-powered assistants that can handle unique tasks such as coding, content creation, language translation, and even more complex functions like helping with legal research or managing customer support queries.

Unlike standard GPT models, which respond to general queries or conversations—that’s soooo 2023—Explore GPTs are fine-tuned to offer specific services. Whether you're looking to generate an image, analyze data, write a screenplay, or debug some code, there’s likely an Explore GPT designed to do just that.

And it works seamlessly, much like opening an app on your phone, except this one is powered by some serious AI behind the scenes.

Why Should You Care?

If you’ve ever found yourself wishing there was an app to help you with a certain task, Explore GPTs likely has the solution.

They streamline workflows by offering an intuitive interface where AI does the heavy lifting. For example, a writer might use a Content GPT to brainstorm blog topics or improve an article’s SEO ranking, while a developer could rely on a Code GPT to debug software faster than ever (I’ll take their word for it, because the only coding I specialize in is the one on my garage keypad).

Here are the top trending ones:

Logo Creator

You get a cookie if you can figure out what this GPT does.

I prompted it to create a logo for my company, and it presented 11 options,which all suck. I even told ChatGPT that they sucked, and it apologized, so now I feel bad.

I asked for a revision, and they suck less, though the colors are better:

Now, I didn’t give it very detailed prompts, because I wanted to have time to finish the rest of this blog post, so that can certainly make a difference.

Cartoonize Yourself

If you ever imagined what your Pixar doppelganger would look like, this is the GPT for you.

All you do is upload a picture of yourself, and let it do the rest. Below is me on the boardwalk in Tel Aviv taken not while Iranian rockets were falling out of the sky:

Cartoonize Yourself must’ve been in a good mood today, because it generated something flattering, and it never does that for me…ever:

Therapist • Psychologist (non medical therapy)

I know what you’re thinking, and you’re absolutely right: DO NOT do therapy with AI, and I’m glad they even have a disclaimer in their title.

When using ChatGPT, you always have to be careful about revealing confidential information, especially when it comes to medical conditions. If you’re going to use this, XYZ yourself or just mess around with it like I did below:

What’s Next for Explore GPTs?

Explore GPTs, like the rest of ChatGPT, is just getting started.
As more industries adopt and customize these tools, we’ll likely see a whole new wave of AI-powered applications tailored to meet specific business needs. And because these tools can be personalized, the possibilities are virtually limitless.

Now it’s time to give it a spin. If you have a ChatGPT account, simply find Explore GPTs on the left column on your dashboard. If you need to create an account, here you go: openai.com/chatgpt.

Okay, go explore and have some fun.
