OpenAI Launches ChatGPT For iPhones And Brings The Chatbot To Your Fingertips
OpenAI’s popular artificial intelligence chatbot ChatGPT is finally coming to smartphones, starting with iOS devices.
ChatGPT has spawned a new insurgence of AI technology that is making waves in our everyday lives. After it launched, the chatbot quickly amassed over 100 million users.
Its web browser version is often used for more complex tasks such as writing code, composing essays, and explaining hard-to-grasp philosophical topics to people in a way that a second-grader could understand.

Now in the US, world soon. Android next.
The iOS app is marketed on the App Store as being able to provide answers, give guidance on cooking or formulate travel plans, assist in everyday workflow, and even teach you a new language or give you a history lesson at your own pace.
In the demo, a user is seen asking the app how to lay the correct-sized plates on a dinner table properly and how to decline an invitation to a concert politely, to which it dished out an already-crafted reply written in Gen Z-approved all lowercase for its user to simply copy and paste.
The app is currently free, with the option to purchase a US$20 monthly subscription with additional features. It is only available for those living in the US, though OpenAI will continue to roll it out to more countries in the coming weeks.
