TL;DR
- OpenAI now lets you text your ChatGPT Dot directly through Google Messages on Android or iMessage on iPhone.
- Your Dot can proactively send updates, photos, and voice notes while retaining context from previous conversations.
- The feature is rolling out as a preview for ChatGPT Pro subscribers in the US.
Say you ask ChatGPT to keep an eye on a product you’ve been meaning to buy, and it texts you when the price drops. Or perhaps you’ve asked it to help plan an upcoming trip, and it messages you when there’s an important update. That’s the convenience OpenAI is bringing to ChatGPT, and you won’t even need to open the app to use it.
Last month, OpenAI introduced Dots, personal AI agents that run in the background, remember key details, and help you stay on top of ongoing tasks. You can interact with your Dot through ChatGPT, Slack, or Microsoft Teams, but one option was missing: your phone’s messaging app.
