OpenAI is a San Francisco-based artificial intelligence research lab founded by Tesla CEO Elon Musk and other experts in the field. They have recently released a new iOS app called ChatGPT to give customers on Apple devices access to their already popular AI-powered chatbot. The updated app supports syncing of chat history across devices and also has a voice input feature making it more convenient to use on a smartphone.
Access to OpenAI’s advanced GPT-4 language model, which provides faster results than the free version of ChatGPT, is only available if customers subscribe to ChatGPT Plus. The app only requires iOS 16.1 or later and can be downloaded from the App Store free of charge with an optional in-app purchase of $19.99 US. The AI-based chatbot which is currently at the top of the productivity list on the App Store in the United States, has plans to be released in other countries in the near future and an Android version is expected soon as well.
OpenAI has warned users that while ChatGPT can access large amounts of data in a short time, its accuracy regarding facts, places, and people cannot be guaranteed. Sensitive material should also not be shared with the service, as AI trainers may review the chats, albeit anonymously.
Overall ChatGPT for iOS is a handy and convenient app for people who need quick and reliable results on their iPhones. The app may be able to overtake other chatbot integrations, such as the Microsoft Bing app, and offer users improved access to OpenAI’s powerful GPT-4 large language model.
