Controversial🔥: Many New AI Tools Here Are Just API Calls To OpenAI

3

Do you consider API calls to OpenAI real "AI tools"? I think they are just classical tools, just renamed in a fancy way. For me, a new AI tool is when you generate new technology (models). What's your point of view?

Agreed, a lot of the "AI tools" that are coming out are just waiting to get gobbled up by OpenAI or another big player introducing a new feature that does the same thing. Shameless plug, mine isn't just another wrapper and we're launching tomorrow! :) Hope you'll take a look!

Hi @alessio_mavica Interesting perspective! I get where you're coming from – the debate around what constitutes a true AI tool is quite nuanced. While API calls to OpenAI can be powerful, the essence of "new AI tools" is indeed debatable. For me, innovation lies in pushing boundaries and creating new models. Keen to hear others' thoughts on this!
