OpenAI has rolled out support for controlling Apple’s iMessage service through ChatGPT, according to Bloomberg. The feature arrived Thursday and is available in ChatGPT on the Mac. Bloomberg reports that the new support allows ChatGPT to act on Apple Messages content, including reading, writing, and sending text messages. The system can also search through messages and produce summaries or other information from conversations in the Apple Messages app. The key point is scope: this is not just a drafting assistant for text. Based on Bloomberg’s description, ChatGPT can interact with the Messages app in ways that include both retrieving information from conversations and initiating message actions. Bloomberg frames the rollout as a move that could raise privacy concerns for Apple. That concern is not detailed further in the provided material, so it should be treated as a potential issue rather than a confirmed dispute between Apple and OpenAI. For operators and engineers, the story is another example of AI assistants moving from answer generation into application control. In this case, the controlled application is a highly personal communications surface, which makes the boundary between convenience and sensitive-data handling especially important. Who benefits: ChatGPT for Mac users may gain a faster way to manage message workflows, including drafting, searching, and summarizing conversations. OpenAI benefits by making ChatGPT more useful as an action-taking assistant rather than only a conversational tool. Who's exposed: Apple is exposed to privacy scrutiny because the feature touches iMessage and the Messages app. Users are exposed if they enable broad access to message content without fully understanding what the assistant can read or do.
