- OpenAI is developing a social media platform featuring a feed powered by ChatGPT’s image generation tools.
- The platform may launch as a standalone app or be integrated into the existing ChatGPT interface.
- The move could give OpenAI real-time user data to enhance its AI models, challenging Meta and X.
OpenAI is reportedly developing a new social media platform, similar to Elon Musk’s X and Meta’s Facebook and Instagram. According to internal sources, the project is still in its early stages, but a prototype already exists featuring a social feed built around ChatGPT’s image generation capabilities.
The internal prototype suggests that OpenAI is experimenting with ways to create a platform where users can interact with AI-generated content in a more communal setting. However, it remains unclear whether this platform will be launched as a standalone app or integrated into the existing ChatGPT ecosystem.
If the project proceeds, it would position OpenAI as a direct competitor to some of the largest players in the social media industry. Beyond user engagement, the move could also serve OpenAI’s broader strategic goals—specifically gaining access to real-time social data that can be used to improve its AI models, a key advantage currently held by platforms like X and Meta.
Reports indicate that OpenAI CEO Sam Altman has been quietly gathering external feedback on the concept, hinting at a growing interest in expanding the company’s reach beyond tools like ChatGPT and DALL·E.
While there is no official launch timeline or confirmation that the platform will go public, the development of a working prototype signals that OpenAI is seriously exploring new directions that blend generative AI with social media.
