If you\u2019ve ever wanted to share all of your digital conversations with OpenAI, we have good news for you: The AI lab has just launched an Apple Messages plug-in for ChatGPT, allowing interested users to connect their Messages inbox with the chatbot.<\/p>\n
The benefits of doing this, OpenAI argues, are numerous. Users can use the plug-in to sort, analyze, or edit their messages directly from ChatGPT. The plug-in also works with Codex and ChatGPT Work, so users can use it professionally, not just personally.<\/p>\n
A brief commercial<\/a> advertising the new plug-in shows a user asking the chatbot to suggest follow-up messages to their contacts based on the messages received the previous day.<\/p>\n You can also ask ChatGPT to delete messages for you, draft and send messages on your behalf, or search for information buried deep in your message history.<\/p>\n As with most things related to AI, this new feature raises some privacy questions. OpenAI told Bloomberg<\/a> that the plug-in runs locally on a user\u2019s machine and that it \u201cdoesn\u2019t create an index of all someone\u2019s messages.\u201d Still, the specifics of what that means aren\u2019t immediately clear. TechCrunch has reached out to OpenAI for more information.<\/p>\n When it comes to message sending, OpenAI encourages users to keep an eye on what ChatGPT is doing and discourages turning on persistent approval, warning that doing so \u201cremoves your final chance to review a message before ChatGPT sends it as you,\u201d the company writes<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"If you\u2019ve ever wanted to share all of your digital conversations with OpenAI, we have good news for…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":865728,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[1572,49,48,2140,20132,278,61],"class_list":["post-865727","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-technology","tag-apple","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-chatgpt","tag-in-brief","tag-openai","tag-technology"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/865727","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=865727"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/865727\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/865728"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=865727"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=865727"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=865727"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
