Seems gimmicky. An audio wrapper on top of ChatGPT accessible by phone... Neither technically impressive nor an improvement to user experience. Sorry for the negativity, I'm trying to remain AI hyped but it's difficult.
I think so, but not a bad marketing gimmick. It gives a pretty easy way for the general public to interact with ChatGPT on a trial basis without signing up or paying for it using a somewhat hard to acquire identifier (phone number). I'm curious if they're doing anything to avoid abuse from spoofed numbers.
I can now ask my phone to call ChatGPT. 100% hands-free. It’s only a few steps less than using the app, but there’s a lot of incremental value to not needing to touch my phone.
Concrete example: I’m driving. I ask Siri a simple question, but it can’t answer it. Previously, if I wanted to use ChatGPT, I’d have to stop, pickup my phone, unlock, open the app, get my answer, then start driving again. I’d never do that. Now, I can just ask Siri to call ChatGPT
