OpenAI is set to launch their official Android app for ChatGPT next week, and it is expected to receive millions of downloads. The release of the app comes at an interesting time as OpenAI has recently announced their plans to develop a watermarking system to distinguish between content generated by humans and AI.

This commitment was made during a White House briefing, where OpenAI was joined by Google, Microsoft, and Meta in their effort to create a fingerprinting technique for identifying AI-generated content such as text, images, and audio.

OpenAI has also introduced a new feature called “custom instructions” for ChatGPT. This feature allows the chatbot to remember user preferences and requirements. For example, if a user identifies themselves as a research scholar, ChatGPT will provide in-depth answers that are tailored to a research scholar’s needs. However, this feature is currently only available to ChatGPT Plus subscribers and is still in the beta phase.

It is worth noting that ChatGPT went through an upgrade with GPT-4 a few months ago, which made it a multi-model system. However, OpenAI has decided to limit its multimedia comprehension abilities due to safety concerns.
