Description

OpenAI and Instacart are joining forces to bring grocery shopping directly into ChatGPT, allowing users to brainstorm meal ideas, create shopping lists, and complete purchases without leaving the chat. This collaboration, led by former Instacart CEO Fidji Simo, now OpenAIs CEO of Applications, signifies a deeper strategic alignment between the two tech giants. This push into agentic commerce is a major focus for OpenAI, aiming to generate new revenue streams by taking a small fee from each sale. This development showcases the evolving role of AI, transforming from a simple chatbot into a more active assistant capable of handling real-world tasks.
