How to use ChatGPT on WhatsApp

Chatting with ChatGPT just got way more interesting (and simpler)! While you could already text with the AI assistant through WhatsApp, OpenAI has now kicked things up a notch. OpenAI has brought ChatGPT to WhatsApp, ensuring AI-powered support for users in need.

Typically, it lets you type out your questions and also send pictures or voice notes for times you’re too busy to type. But if you’re wondering how to hit up your AI sidekick on WhatsApp, we have a few steps in place to help you get started. Here’s a step-by-step guide:

What can ChatGPT on WhatsApp do?

For now, ChatGPT can only answer your queries in text and does not support multimodal responses. This means it cannot generate images or process your Word or PDF documents.

While OpenAI is yet to confirm the possibility, there is still a good chance that they may be made available for the chatbot later in the future. In fact, users may also soon be able to log in to their Premium accounts to access a host of other features on ChatGPT.

But at the time of filing this story, there’s no word on when that could be possible. Until then, you always have the platform’s very own Meta AI chatbot to process complex queries.
