ChatGPT Plugins Don't Have PMF. Sam Altman was recently quoted (in a since unpublished blog post) noting that ChatGPT plugins have not yet demonstrated product market fit.
This matches my own usage patterns: I use the “browse” and “code interpreter” modes on a daily basis, but I’ve not found any of the third party developer plugins to stick for me yet.
I like Matt Rickard’s observation here: “Chat is not the right UX for plugins. If you know what you want to do, it’s often easier to just do a few clicks on the website. If you don’t, just a chat interface makes it hard to steer the model toward your goal.”
