OpenAI has introduced new ChatGPT plugins that can turn your favorite AI chatbot into a travel agent or personal assistant. The plugins will be gradually introduced to travel sites like Expedia and Kayak as well as non-travel sites like Instacart, Klarna and OpenTable. The plugins work within the existing ChatGPT platform and offer personalized recommendations based on users’ natural language queries. Besides the travel-related plugins for Expedia and Kayak, there are others like the Instacart plugin that helps users find recipes and create a shopping list, the OpenTable plugin that gives restaurant recommendations and links to book a reservation, and the Klarna plugin that offers personalized shopping tips and helps users find the products they are looking for. These plugins are expected to revolutionize the future of travel by helping travelers plan all aspects of their trips, from flights, hotels and rental cars to activities. The plugins are initially only available to ChatGPT Plus users, but OpenAI plans to gradually roll out broader access over time.
