ChatGPT now supports reading and sending iMessages on Mac OpenAI announced on Thursday the launch of a new Apple Messages plug-in for the Mac version of ChatGPT. Through this plug-in, Mac users can now directly use ChatGPT to search for information, draft text, analyze conversation content, and even send replies to contacts. Users can find and install this plug-in in the "Public" list of the ChatGPT plug-in interface. After installation, ChatGPT can not only access iMessage, but is also fully compatible with SMS text messages and RCS messages. OpenAI officials also listed several demonstration use cases, suggesting that users try to let the AI perform daily operations such as "check my calendar and reply to the other party when I am free for dinner next week", "provide follow-up suggestions based on yesterday's chat history", "find birthdays in messages and add them to the calendar" and "find potential spam messages that can be deleted". In terms of permissions and privacy, sending messages through ChatGPT requires user approval by default. OpenAI also warns users to avoid granting them permanent automatic sending permissions. In addition, in order to ensure the normal operation of the information integration function, ChatGPT must obtain "full disk access" in the Mac system settings, and also needs to obtain the contact name and the use of automated tools. From a technical implementation point of view, the plug-in relies on Mac's AppleScript and accessibility settings to run. It is unclear whether Apple was involved in the development of this plug-in, especially considering that Apple had just sued OpenAI for allegedly "stealing trade secrets" and the two parties are currently in a fierce litigation stage. In terms of scope of application, this information integration function is currently only available in the "ChatGPT Work" and "Codex" modes of desktop ChatGPT, and does not support the regular ChatGPT dialogue interface. At the same time, this feature is currently only open to Mac users using Apple Silicon chips. via cnBeta.COM - Chinese industry information station (author: source: cnBeta.COM)
