OpenAI has introduced an Apple Messages integration for ChatGPT that gives users the ability to connect their messages with the artificial intelligence assistant.

The new feature allows ChatGPT to interact with message conversations and provides users with tools for organizing, analyzing and editing information contained within their messages.

According to OpenAI, users can ask ChatGPT to search through their message history, identify information, prepare suggested responses and help manage conversations.

The integration can also be used with Codex and ChatGPT Work, giving it potential applications beyond personal communication and into professional environments.

The system can also assist with composing and sending messages on behalf of users. However, OpenAI has advised users to monitor the assistant’s actions carefully, particularly when it comes to sending messages automatically.

The company warns that allowing persistent approval could remove the opportunity for users to review a message before it is sent. The introduction of the feature has also raised questions about privacy because it gives an AI system access to personal conversations.

OpenAI has said the integration operates locally on the user’s computer and does not create a complete index of the user’s messages. However, questions remain about how the system handles information and what data is retained during use.

The development represents another step toward integrating artificial intelligence into everyday communication. While the feature could make it easier for people to manage large volumes of messages, its ability to access and act on private conversations is likely to keep privacy and user control at the center of discussions surrounding the technology.
