ChatGPT update race: from now on – artificial intelligence in conversations

The OpenAI company announced a new update to GPT chat that allows users to communicate with the popular bot not only through the computer or mobile phone but also through phone calls and text messages. The renewal is carried out using the number 1-800-CHATGPT or the numbers: 18002428478.

The new service will allow users to have a direct voice conversation with the system, instead of typing questions and instructions through the computer interface or the application. The service offers 15 minutes of free use each month, during which you can ask questions, request explanations or get help in a variety of topics in which ChatGPT specializes, such as solving problems, providing quick answers, or consulting in various fields.

One of the prominent advantages of the service is that a user account is not required to make a call, so even those who are not registered or are not used to using advanced technologies can easily experiment with the service. In addition, OpenAI announced that it is developing a new mechanism that will combine WhatsApp messages with the users’ personal ChatGPT account. This will enable the synchronization and preservation of the history of the interactions between the different channels, thus improving the user experience.

The main idea behind the service is to present ChatGPT to a wider audience through everyday channels such as phone calls and text messages, and to allow users from any background and anywhere in the world to communicate with the system in a simple, fast and convenient way. The service is especially suitable for people who prefer voice interaction or who are not used to using applications or advanced technological interfaces.

The update is part of a release of 12 significant updates, in which OpenAI also launched the Sora tool, an innovative tool for creating video using artificial intelligence that has received a lot of attention. In addition, the company is implementing an aggressive growth strategy, which includes the hiring of a chief marketing officer and the launch of new features such as a built-in search engine, a feature designed to compete with leading search services such as Google.

These updates take place against the background of growing competition in the generative artificial intelligence market, which is expected to reach a trillion dollars in revenue within a decade. The company faces huge companies such as Google, Amazon, Microsoft, Meta and Anthropic. In October, OpenAI completed a capital raising round at a valuation of $157 billion, while receiving a credit line of $4 billion, which brings its total liquidity to more than $10 billion.

As mentioned, the new 1-800-CHATGPT service offers simple access even without the need for a user account. However, the company has updated that it is working on developing a mechanism that will integrate the WhatsApp messages with the user’s ChatGPT account. During a live broadcast that revealed the new service, it was reported that the tool was developed “in just a few weeks”. The service is expected to expand the circle of GPT chat users, the leader in the artificial intelligence market.
