For gauging chatgpt's eligibility, I made this market:

Audio only or video only chatbots count as AI chatbots, right?

People using agentic AI assistant and AI chatbots as different tools counts as using AI chatbots, right?

@MaximeRiche no chatbots are texting things

@Seeker weird

Chatbots are about chatting not about using text... Otherwise what about chatbots that currently supports images, audio inputs and outputs? They are still chatbots because they are bots that chat...

@MaximeRiche The market title should update then. ChatBots today are for texting and have always been. you're talking of a future change of definition

@MaximeRiche "Chatting" sure but that only happens with text until now , and we use words as is their conventional usage not future predictions

@Seeker Today's ChatGPT accepts image and audio inputs and can return image and audio too.

ChatGPT is a chatbot.

ChatGPT has also an audio only working mode (calling mode).

@MaximeRiche it takes in images but it doesnt give me images. its a one way thing. not chatting. google search gives me images but isnt a chatbot

@MaximeRiche that audiomode is like saying "TTS" is a chatbot

@Seeker chatgpt outputs images...

@MaximeRiche no?

@Seeker you're seriously not calling dalle a chatbot are you?

@Seeker

@Seeker A chatbot is a bot that you chat with. The medium is irrelevant.

hey, sorry to clarify late - IMO chatgpt but via voice counts as a chatbot, and wikipedia and other articles I found seem to agree with that. does anyone disagree strongly?

I don't think dall e is relevant here

Basically 3 years from now and chatbot usage declines significantly - I'm heavy YES on that.

ChatGPT currently does have chat services but I think in the future it might not just have chat services . It's better to keep this subjective imo

@firstuserhere I'm confused why you think ChatGPT would stop being a chatbot. What are you imagining specifically?

@singer I said "just" a chatbot - chatGPT is a service. Its already serving some chat models and has a "Store" for other things. Also an audio mode to talk to the model. Seems like they're going towards using chatgpt as the service and lots of integrations with it

@firstuserhere the store and audio mode are for using the chatbot, like you say, they're not replacing it with something that isn't a chatbot. I'm confused why some here are suggesting that chatgpt will stop being a chatbot.

I'm betting YES, bet against me?

@jacksonpolack So, like ChatGPT?
