OpenAI Brings ChatGPT To Landline

An anonymous reader shares a report: ChatGPT is coming to phones. No, not smartphones -- landlines. Call 1-800-242-8478 (1-800-CHATGPT), and OpenAI's AI-powered assistant will respond as of Wednesday afternoon.

The experience is more or less identical to Advanced Voice Mode, OpenAI's real-time conversational feature for ChatGPT -- minus the multimodality. ChatGPT responds to the questions users ask over the phone, and can handle tasks such as translating a sentence into a different language. OpenAI is offering 15 minutes of free calling for U.S. users. Beginning Wednesday, ChatGPT is also available on WhatsApp for those who prefer to text the AI assistant.
