Reading about #ChatGPT plug-ins and wondering why this is framed as plug-ins for #ChatGPT (giving it "capabilities") rather than #ChatGPT as a plug-in to provide a conversational front-end to other services.
Nevermind, I know why: This is #OpenAI yet again trying to sell their text synthesis machine as "an AI".

1. Screencap: "Though not a perfect analogy, plugins can be “eyes and ears” for language models, giving them access to information that is too recent, too personal, or too specific to be included in the training data. In response to a user’s explicit request, plugins can also enable language models to perform safe, constrained actions on their behalf, increasing the usefulness of the system overall."
