Key takeaways

  • OpenAI has now released the Android app for its AI chatbot, ChatGPT
  • The iPhone app was launched two months earlier
  • The launch comes after OpenAI quietly shut down its AI detection tool due to poor accuracy

Android users always complain that companies release iPhone apps way ahead of the other operating system, but they didn’t have to wait long. For those wanting 24/7 access to the AI chatbot, the ChatGPT app for Android is now available. It comes as OpenAI quietly shut downs another service it ran — here’s the latest.

OpenAI kickstarted a generative AI revolution which sent tech stocks into the stratosphere. To ride this wave, consider using Q.ai’s Emerging Tech Kit. It applies AI to predict future gains in tech stocks and ETFs and repositions your portfolio for maximum benefits.

ChatGPT: now for Android users

Android users, rejoice: ChatGPT has arrived to an Android-powered phone near you. OpenAI had already opened pre-registrations for Android users interested in downloading the app, but it turns out that Android users only had to wait two months for the app to become a reality.

OpenAI said the Android app comes with enhanced protections compared to the web app and will include syncing across multiple devices so users can take their chats wherever they go.

The company is likely hoping for a boost, given the website saw its traffic fall for the first time last month, suggesting the chatbot’s popularity may have peaked with more AI chatbot options arriving on the market.

OpenAI shuts down AI detection tool

The leading AI company may have had a lot of wins so far, but it isn’t immune to the odd slip-up. One of them is OpenAI shutting down its AI detection tool last week, which was supposed to tell the difference between human and AI writing, but, well, sucked.

The detection software was apparently prone to generate false positives by marking human writing as AI. OpenAI commented that the tool could be improved with better data in the future.

OpenAI isn’t done with the concept — the company said it was “working to incorporate feedback and are currently researching more effective provenance techniques for text” — but users will have to wait a while longer for any news on this tool.

The bottom line

After its runaway success, ChatGPT has quickly become a mainstay in the tech world — and it’s no wonder OpenAI wanted to capitalize on its clout now be delivering mobile apps to iPhone and Android. As regulation looms and new competitors enter the market, OpenAI could face some headwinds in the future.

Generative AI is just the start for the tech market, which wants to take AI all the way — and benefit from the stock gains. With Q.ai’s Emerging Tech Kit, you can capture this upward momentum. Its sophisticated AI foresees promising tech stocks and ETFs, and tailors your portfolio to help secure the best possible outcome.
