I misclicked a birthday year that’s too recent and no matter what, I’m no longer able to login with any method now. Sad.

My experience too. It had one of those idiotic calendars you have to scroll back painfully so I said F it ok today is my birthday. Then it locked me out and said they can't serve me. Tried to log in with another email and it still wouldn't let me. I uninstalled the app and thus my introduction to the world of AI on my phone was complete.

I was a little upset I had to scroll through and endless series of "OpenAI" apps, but then I realized they locked the app to the US Appstore only. Pity

> while Apple allowed these copycats into the App Store without really considering the customer experience. And what is Apple supposed to do in this case? Block independent devs from submitting valid apps? Then they’d be blamed for supporting big corp and monopolistic practices. Damned if they do and damned if they don’t.

I'd hope that Apple would at least block applications that are doing trademark infringement which it seems like they are doing if they show up when someone searches for OpenAI ChatGPT

They don't yet have a trademark so there's been no infringement for Apple to detect.

So, does this run on iOS, or is it a wrapper of some privacy invading cloud thing? It says it syncs between devices. Is it E2E sync, which is kind of table-stakes for the iOS ecosystem at this point?

gpt only exists in the cloud. openai has not released the model weights publicly. llama is the closest thing that you can run yourself.

There are some great Siri shortcuts that work with the OpenAI API. Edit: I am using this one https://github.com/Yue-Yang/ChatGPT-Siri

Do go on - I'd love something like this.

yes please, i feel like i am dreadfully underusing iOS Workflows and Siri, and need more inspiration to integrate it into my life

The people complaining that you can’t find it by searching verbatim: this is always the case for the first 1-2 days with an iOS app launch.

but this is openai we are talking about, you'd think apple would fast track them towards ranking higher at least to not make apple look terrible

Interesting, yes, that make sense, there should be resellers. It is not clear how much of that money ended up going to Apple and paying for the OpenAI API access. Is Apple going to get their cut from the paying customers of OpenAI, by the way?

no. and you won’t be able to start paying from inside the app.

You can start a ChatGPT Plus subscription from inside the linked app.
