OpenAI just launched ChatGPT for Windows—and it’s coming for your office software

OpenAI has launched a Windows desktop application for ChatGPT, following a macOS version, aimed at integrating AI into daily life. The application is currently in preview for ChatGPT Plus, Enterprise, Team, and Edu subscribers, allowing users to access the AI assistant with a keyboard shortcut (Alt + Space) from anywhere on their PC. This initiative is part of OpenAI's strategy to position ChatGPT as an essential tool in personal and professional settings, enhancing user engagement and data collection. OpenAI is also exploring partnerships beyond Microsoft, including discussions with Oracle and outreach to the U.S. military. The release could transform enterprise software by positioning ChatGPT as a core productivity tool, potentially disrupting traditional software providers. However, OpenAI faces challenges regarding biases in AI models and the implications of its rapid growth and commercialization.

ChatGPT plants its flag on Copilot’s front lawn — 5 months after OpenAI snubbed Windows 11 for Apple despite Microsoft’s multi-billion dollar investment

OpenAI has begun testing its ChatGPT desktop application for Windows, available exclusively to users subscribed to ChatGPT Plus, Enterprise, Team, and Edu plans. The app is compatible with Windows 10 but lacks features like Advanced Voice Mode and the GPT Store. Earlier this year, OpenAI launched its AI chatbot for macOS, which drew attention due to Microsoft's investment in OpenAI. The Windows version is currently limited to specific subscription tiers, with plans for a broader rollout later this year. The official app will allow users to interact with files and photos and will incorporate the latest model enhancements. Windows 10 will continue to be supported until October 14, 2025, while it currently holds a 62.79% share of the global desktop operating system market. Windows 11's share has increased from 23.64% to 33.37%.

After Microsoft invested $10 billion, OpenAI snubs Windows 11 as it releases ChatGPT app first on Mac. “We’re just prioritizing where our users are.”

OpenAI has introduced a new desktop application specifically designed for macOS users called ChatGPT. Despite this, there is no news of a Windows version of the app, as OpenAI is prioritizing where their users are, indicating a preference for Mac over Windows among their audience. The company also announced an advanced version of its large language model, GPT-4o, with improved real-time voice interaction and processing speeds. Windows users can still access ChatGPT via a web browser, and there is hope for a tailor-made Windows app in the future. Further details on OpenAI's strategy for Windows may be revealed at Microsoft's upcoming Build developer conference.
