ChatGPT for Mac Now Available to All Users: Interact Easily with the AI Chatbot via Keyboard or Voice

OpenAI's ChatGPT app for Mac, a popular AI chatbot, is now available to all users. The app was first introduced in mid-May and saw a slow rollout that was limited to ChatGPT Plus subscribers until recently. With the latest update, no subscription plan is necessary for using ChatGPT on the Mac.

The ChatGPT Mac app allows users to interact with the chatbot more easily by bringing up a chat interface for asking questions directly from their keyboard (Option ⌥ Space). The app also includes a built-in Voice Mode feature, enabling voice conversations with ChatGPT. Additionally, Apple's Siri personal assistant can hand complicated requests over to ChatGPT and relay the information back to the user with permission.

The rollout of the macOS app was overshadowed by OpenAI's announcement of its flagship generative AI model, GPT-4o. This new model promises more advanced intelligence, including multimodal capabilities that can handle not only text and speech but also video. However, the desktop app currently uses earlier versions of ChatGPT (GPT-3.5, GPT-4) and does not yet support the latest version's audio and video capabilities.

The macOS ChatGPT app is designed to integrate seamlessly into users' workflows by appearing as a chat interface overlaid on top of the screen. Users can interact with the chatbot, attach files, photos, and screenshots to messages. The Voice Mode feature will be updated with GPT-4o capabilities in the future.

To download and install ChatGPT for macOS from OpenAI's website, users need a Mac running Apple Silicon and macOS Sonoma or higher.
