Did you know OpenAI Adds Support for Pictures and Voice Notes to ChatGPT on WhatsApp

 

The makers of ChatGPT shared last year that an integration with WhatsApp was arriving soon. This would give users the chance to chat with the tool located inside the messaging app directly.

Now, the firm is taking the integration one step further by adding support for the feature so users’ voice notes and pictures are linked to ChatGPT on the texting platform.

The news was first shared by OpenAI who just mentioned that the feature is up for grabs to all individuals. Other than texts, users get the chance to upload pictures to ask queries and generate prompts to make it quicker and more efficient. If you’d like to start using the feature, all you need to do is begin a chat with the number +18002428478.

Through such an integration, the makers of ChatGPT want to make this tool more widespread than it is right now. Even if you don’t have this platform downloaded on your device, you’ll still get the chance to use it if you have WhatsApp.

More talks about that were shared including how users get the chance to call the chatbot in cases when no internet connection exists. The number happens to be the same as the one used for integrating the texting app.

OpenAI is busy working on many independent features for the popular ChatGPT which has become so popular over the years. Last month, we saw it release another innovative offering dubbed Tasks. This transforms the app into a list featuring reminders. It’s currently up for grabs in the beta phase as we speak.

In terms of integration for the texting platform, the company shared how it’s not possible yet to integrate accounts on OpenAI with WhatsApp. However, it hopes that such an offering could be up for grabs for all users with Free, Plus, or Pro packages.

The app of ChatGPT is currently offered for free on the Apple App Store. Meanwhile, all Mac variants need to be installed from the website of OpenAI. Similarly, the iPhone on WhatsApp is up for grabs for free through the App Store.

We can see how the integration between both popular platforms is going to be a great offering for users who are searching for ways to make their lives simpler.
