ChatGPT Launches Texting for 'Dots' via iMessage and RCS

Key Info

ChatGPT is rolling out a preview feature that lets Pro users in the US text their 'dot' through iMessage or RCS, assigning tasks via text, photos, or voice notes and receiving proactive updates.

Highlights

• Users can give their dot tasks or things to monitor using text, photos, or voice notes.
• The dot texts back proactively with relevant updates.
• Setup is done by tapping the dot's profile and selecting 'Texting'.
• The dot keeps the same context and plugins across channels.
• Only the user can text their dot, and the dot can only text the user; OpenAI does not gain access to other text conversations.
• Rolling out now as a preview for Pro users in the US.
