I don't know about that. I see there being more general chatbots like ChatGPT. But vastly more specialised ones as well. It is not a zero sum game here, more specialised chat bots does not mean there will be fewer general ones. We are only at the start of this and both sides are likely to grow a lot in the coming years. But I can see specialised ones taking off faster at the same time.

ChatGPT is incredibly expensive to train and run. It's general nature also makes it worse at everything.
I feel that it's more a proof concept to get people excited about them.
Specialization definitely makes more sense.
And in the future future, we see all the specialized chat bots converged back into one lmao gotem
Can I get a hyperactive one that encourages violence like the IMPs from The Ascent?
This specialization never happened with web search. There are tiny exceptions but for the most part, Google was faster to figure out how to serve niche types of searches than niche experts were at providing an experience as good as Google’s. And anyway, consumers can’t be bothered to decide which specialized tool to use for things.
I want one general bot that can defer to specialised ones.
Chatgpt already does this with plugins FYI
This already happens. Chatgpt even has a nice clicky ui to get the different models working together.
