ChatGPT Now Sends Texts via Apple Messages Plug‑In
WHY IT MATTERS
It expands AI’s role in everyday communication, offering users a convenient way to manage texts and potentially increasing productivity and accessibility in messaging.
What happened
OpenAI’s ChatGPT has launched a new Apple Messages plug‑in that lets the AI send text messages on a user’s behalf. The integration turns ChatGPT into an automated text scribe, allowing users to draft and send messages through the familiar Apple Messages interface without manually typing.
The plug‑in is designed to streamline communication, offering a hands‑free texting experience that can be triggered by voice or typed prompts.
While the feature is still in early rollout, it demonstrates a growing trend of AI tools being embedded directly into mainstream messaging platforms.
