If you’ve ever wanted to share all your digital conversations with OpenAI, we have good news for you: The AI Lab has just released an Apple Messages plugin for ChatGPT, allowing interested users to connect their Messages inbox with the chatbot.
The benefits of doing this, OpenAI maintains, are numerous. Users can use the plugin to sort, analyze or edit their messages directly from ChatGPT. The plugin also works with Codex and ChatGPT Work, so users can use it professionally, not just personally.
TO short commercial The advertisement for the new plugin shows a user asking the chatbot to suggest follow-up messages to their contacts based on messages received the previous day.
You can also ask ChatGPT to delete messages for you, compose and send messages on your behalf, or search for information hidden deep in your message history.
As with most things AI-related, this new feature raises some privacy issues. Open AI he told Bloomberg that the plugin runs locally on a user’s machine and that it “does not create an index of all of someone’s messages.” Still, the details of what that means are not immediately clear. TechCrunch has reached out to OpenAI for more information.
When it comes to sending messages, OpenAI encourages users to keep an eye on what ChatGPT is doing and advises against turning on persistent approval, warning that doing so “eliminates your last opportunity to review a message before ChatGPT sends it as you,” the company said. writes.
