OpenAI is releasing a ChatGPT app for Mac first, well ahead of Windows

OpenAI is debuting its own app for ChatGPT generative text for macOS users, and it will be released very shortly after the release event is over.

To date, ChatGPT has been available for Mac through third party apps. That is about to change.

In its series of Monday announcements, the company declared that it will release a first-party Mac app on Monday. This will make the service constantly available to macOS users.

The app includes a "Voice Mode" that utilizes the new GPT-4o model's audio features when they are fully deployed.

Paid subscribers can get the macOS app on May 13. It will eventually come to free GPT users in the next few weeks. A Windows version has been promised to arrive at some point in 2024.

The release doesn't appear to be related to a reported deal that is developing between Apple and OpenAI. A report on Friday claimed that a deal between the pair is close -- but not yet finished.

Beyond that deal, there has also been considerable discussion about a deal with Google. And, Apple is said to be working on Ajax, an LLM that can cover many different functions that Siri can theoretically perform.

With Ajax, Apple is expected to offer text summarization analyzing whether contacts are involved, and providing more intelligent results to Spotlight.

Beyond generative AI, Apple is also working on summaritive applications. We broke news of a similar technology that is expected to be included system-wide to assist in summarizing voice notes, and other audio sources. This too is expected to be on-device.

What will you be able to do with the app that you can’t in a browser window?

I agree, the app is quite useful and a glimpse of what Siri could become. The idea of Siri embedding into macOS like Google's Gemini or the upcoming Android Astra assistant is promising. Apple could really make some big strides here. Running Llama3 8B on an M1Max does feel almost as fast as GPT-4, though the 70B version is understandably slower. On-device LLMs seem to have a solid future, with Apple and Meta leading the way and Google's Gemini models adding to the mix. Apple's focus on user experience is key. Fine-tuning models on personal data is still pretty challenging for most users, and this is an area where Apple could innovate. I'm hopeful for some exciting announcements at WWDC. Also, integrating Acumatica with ChatGPT can boost customer loyalty by improving service efficiency. For more details, you can check out acupower.co.uk/products/chat-gpt-and-acumatica-integration. What do you think Apple's next big move will be in this space?
