Much to the likely joy of ChatGPT lovers, the highly popular text-generating AI has finally been released in app form for iOS.
The new iOS ChatGPT is, like its web-based version, free to use for its GPT-3.5 build, but users who pay the premium subscription of $20 a month will, of course, also have access to its more sophisticated, though slower, GPT-4.0 build. According to OpenAI, registered users will also be able to sync their chat histories across devices and plan to expand access to other countries "in the coming weeks.
All very exciting, but another important new feature of the app is its ability to process vocal inputs as well as text. By integrating OpenAI's "Whisper" speech recognition system, the app should reach, as the company explains, “human-level robustness and accuracy” for English speakers. This will significantly change how users interact with the AI, likely preferring that option over inputting questions manually.
The web-based version of ChatGPT does have some safeguards built in to prevent generating responses to things like promoting violence or subjects that are sexual in nature, but these can be sidestepped by making ChatGPT answer in a persona, so quite how this will be handled will be interesting to see.
As with other apps, one option may be to put an age restriction on the app, which is currently set to 12+. Let's see how it gets on.
