OpenAI has introduced a new Apple Messages plug-in, enabling ChatGPT to connect directly with users’ messaging inboxes. This integration empowers individuals to sort, edit, and analyze their digital conversations using conversational artificial intelligence.
The tool extends its utility to professional environments via Codex and ChatGPT Work, facilitating tasks such as drafting, searching history, sending texts, and deleting messages. While designed to streamline communication workflows, the feature immediately sparks valid privacy considerations regarding personal data access.
OpenAI clarifies that the plug-in operates locally on the user’s device without indexing the complete message history. Even so, the company advises against enabling persistent auto-approval, urging users to maintain manual review before any automated message is transmitted.
