Listen Later

In this episode of the Daily AI Show, the team engaged in an in-depth discussion about OpenAI Assistants and Custom GPTs, exploring their unique strengths, weaknesses, and appropriate use cases. The episode featured co-hosts Jyunmi, Robert, Andy, Beth, Brian, and Karl.

Key Points Discussed:

  1. Custom GPTs vs. OpenAI Assistant: The show highlighted the differences between Custom GPTs, which allow for personalized chat GPT interactions using specific information, and the OpenAI Assistant, which is more API-focused for business site integration.

  2. Practical Application and Accessibility: The conversation covered how custom GPTs exist within the ChatGPT environment, offering a more user-friendly, low-code solution. In contrast, the OpenAI Assistant requires coding and is better suited for building applications using OpenAI's APIs.

  3. Integration and Deployment: The episode included a demonstration on integrating these AI tools into websites. The hosts discussed the technical aspects and the user experience considerations, particularly noting the response time differences between Custom GPTs and the OpenAI Assistant.

  4. Business and Internal Use Cases: The discussion emphasized the potential of Custom GPTs for quick deployment and testing ideas within a business, providing examples like creating an internal knowledge base for sales teams or HR information.

  5. Cost and Accessibility Considerations: The team touched upon the cost-effectiveness of Custom GPTs for smaller, internal applications versus the scalable but more costly API assistant for larger, external applications.

  6. Wrap-Up and Action Steps:

    The episode concluded with a reinforcement of the distinct roles that Custom GPTs and OpenAI Assistants play in the business landscape.

    For businesses and professionals looking to leverage AI for enhanced outcomes, the key takeaway is to assess the specific needs and scale of their applications before choosing between these tools.

    Custom GPTs are ideal for rapid, low-cost internal solutions, while OpenAI Assistants are more suited for extensive, external applications requiring API integration.
