OpenAI has introduced the Apps SDK platform, which allows users to add third-party applications directly to ChatGPT. Now users will be able to interact with familiar services such as Spotify or Canva directly while chatting with the chatbot.

Users can control applications by voice or text, for example, ask Spotify to select music for a party or instruct Canva to create a poster layout. After a one-time account connection, the selected service works directly within ChatGPT.
