ChatGPT now has a desktop app — but it’s only available on macOS for now. OpenAI CTO Mira Murati announced the news during an event on Tuesday, where she also said that ChatGPT is getting a refreshed UI.
In the demo shown by OpenAI, users could open the ChatGPT desktop app in a small window, alongside another program. They asked ChatGPT questions about what’s on their screen — whether by typing or saying it. ChatGPT could then respond based on what it “sees.”
OpenAI says users can ask ChatGPT a question by using the Option + Space keyboard shortcut, as well as take and discuss screenshots within the app. Both free and paid users will be able to access the new app, but it will only be available to ChatGPT Plus users starting today before a broader rollout in “the coming weeks.”
OpenAI is planning to launch a Windows version of the app “later this year.” ChatGPT is already available as an app on iOS and Android.
OpenAI also shared an image of ChatGPT’s new UI on web, and it looks like it comes with pretty minor changes to the homescreen and message layout. “We know that these models get more and more complex,” Mirati explains. “But we want the experience of interaction to actually become more natural, easy, and for you not to focus on the UI at all, but focus on the collaboration with ChatGPT.”
