OpenAI Dev Day, Dot and OpenAI’s Product Transition, Sign In With ChatGPT
Ben Thompson is reading a coherent strategy from what looked like a mess. That's worth listening to. The specifics matter: if OpenAI is using ChatGPT as an identity layer (Sign In) and Dot as a discovery platform, they are building for a post-browser internet. For builders: watch whether other labs copy this three-layer model (chat, identity, discovery). For investors: this is OpenAI signaling that the frontier model is just the asset, not the product.
