> In Q1 we will launch a GPT builder revenue program. As a first step, US builders will be paid based on user engagement with their GPTs. We'll provide details on the criteria for payments as we get closer.

This doesn't inspire confidence, especially if you have a GPT that requires access to a different server that you have to host and pay for, which I think is the only way to do something genuinely useful beyond sharing prompts.

and based on how ChatGPT itself was built after seeing how customers were using their API, I'd be willing to bet that OpenAI will simply copy the most popular ones with an "official" version. Developers are going to act as free R&D for OpenAI again

But how is that different to capitalism in general? Isn't every business on Earth doing product discovery for everyone else?

It's different because they're stealing what you discover under the guise of partnership. (Assuming it's true)

That’s bog standard Capitalism from the history of McDonalds to big tech companies doing phony acquisition interviews to steal IP.
