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?

Right now, GPTs are more like blogging than apps. But people that were early to blogging and who understood SEO dominated in the long term. You can think of it as a new user acquisition channel. This won’t be about “Look I released a great GPT!”This will be “I released a great GPT and I’m constantly updating to make it better and to add new features.”

Longer term, they will give people the ability to make these much more complex. You can already call outside resources from your GPT, and they’re giving preview of more advanced functionality they’ll probably bring it from their Assistants API. They want people to build more complex GPTs in the long term. More like apps. Look at their Canva demo as an example.
