At the press conference last night, OpenAI announced the launch of the official ChatGPT client for Apple Mac devices. This client is also gradually launched, but there are already popular installation packages available on the Internet.
However, it is inevitable that these versions circulated on the Internet may be modified and contain malicious software. Therefore, some netizens in the OpenAI community have posted official download links, which can guarantee the security.
The good news is that this download link is available. The bad news is that even after installation, you need permission to log in. Bluedot has not opened ChatGPT Plus subscription members. I don't know whether you need to subscribe to get the test qualification first.
This prompt will appear when you log in:Coming soon. You do not have access to the desktop app yet. You can still use ChatGPT at chatgpt.com
From the prompt, we can see that the permissions should be issued gradually, so for the time being, users still need to use the web version of ChatGPT until the official launch of ChatGPT for Mac.
In addition, it is verified that ChatGPT for Mac is not developed based on the Electron framework, but is a native application of macOS. If the Electron framework is used for development, then the Windows version must also be launched. Now there is no Windows version. It is estimated that OpenAI is unwilling to use the cross platform framework, so different platforms need to be developed separately.
