Your Google Messages chats are getting a ChatGPT upgrade

Google Messages on Android and iMessage on iPhone are now getting a ChatGPT upgrade, allowing users to text their ChatGPT Dot directly. This Dot, a personal AI agent from OpenAI, can proactively send updates, photos, and voice notes while maintaining context from previous conversations. The feature is currently available as a preview for ChatGPT Pro subscribers in the United States.

Users can ask ChatGPT to monitor a product they've been eyeing, alerting them when the price drops, or assist in planning a trip, notifying them of important updates. This convenience is achieved without needing to open the ChatGPT app. Last month, OpenAI launched Dots, personal AI agents that operate in the background, remember key details, and help users stay on top of ongoing tasks.

These Dots can be interacted with through ChatGPT, Slack, or Microsoft Teams, but until now, there was no option to use them via your phone's messaging app.
