Can somebody explain WHY GPTs are a big deal for entrepreneurs? (alien.top)

All media outlets are comparing GPTs to the Apple app store revolution back then and essentially pushing entrepreneur to jump in and create something.

To create a mobile app you need years of experience and in certain areas a team and tousen of dollars in other areas. To create a GPT, you answer questions in a wizard a upload documents, something that can be done a replicated in minutes, where is the sale value in there? What I see is a wrapper on top on chatgpt (like many other AI indie projects)

This is not a critique, I see the potential for internal use in a company or where the value resides on private documents, but I really don't see a new application marketplace revolution in here. What am I missing? Or it is just hype?

As someone who was a strong skeptic around AI (still am for the most part) AI has added hours of productivity to my weeks / months particularly around 2 things.

writing copy. GPT (coupled with the right prompt) has the capacity of giving you a beautiful starting spot for copy. Seriously good stuff.
coding. Before I had to ask my team on how to accomplish simple stuff in react as I'm more so a designer than a developer. Now I start with asking GPT before asking them and it works around 60% of the time.

These two things might not sound that big of a deal but combined it saves me personally approx. 8 hours a week, and that's a pretty huge deal to me.
