OpenAI has launched its ChatGPT iOS app for users who prefer to use the chatbot on their mobile phones. The app comes with a slew of features, such as voice search using OpenAI’s open-source speech recognition system, Whisper integration, and chat history syncing from the web version. It is also ad-free, setting it apart from the competition like Microsoft’s Bing which includes ads. For its subscribers, the app offers exclusive access to GPT-4’s capabilities like early access to features and faster response times. Currently, the app is available only in the US, with more countries to follow in the coming weeks.
OpenAI is a technology company that focuses on research and development in the quantified world. It was founded by two investor-entrepreneurs, Sam Altman and Ilya Sutskever, in late 2015. Its primary goal is to promote safe artificial general intelligence (AGI). The company focuses on AI projects such as the development of deep learning solutions, reinforcement learning agents and bots. OpenAI also offers tools for researchers, developers and companies so that they can work on the development of machine learning models.

He is also the President of the nonprofit organization OpenAI. Altman sees AI as the path for the future and is focused on mobilizing the industry with it. His award-winning venture, ChatGPT, has been a runaway success and has been paving the way for the ongoing AI revolution.
