ChatGPT gains Apple Messages integration on Mac
OpenAI added an Apple Messages plugin to ChatGPT on macOS, according to TechCrunch, MacRumors and Techmeme. The integration lets ChatGPT search and analyse conversations, draft messages and send replies from a Mac. Users can install the feature through ChatGPT's plugins interface, bringing the assistant directly into personal messaging workflows.
