Apple Watch users can now use ChatGPT, which should make Siri nervous

Share This Post

  • Just a few months after being incorporated into Bing, ChatGPT has migrated to iOS and is now available only as a third-party app for the Apple Watch.

Petey – AI Assistant is what it’s named, and developer Hidde van de Ploeg invented it (listed as Modum B.V. on the App Store). It was formerly named as watchGPT, but the name had to be changed owing to trademark difficulties with the abbreviation “GPT”. According to a developer’s Twitter demonstration video, Petey works like Siri. You open the app, ask a question, and it responds via Text to Voice in a short amount of time. Just swipe down on the watch face and tap Reply to respond to an enquiry. Petey can give quite complicated replies, such as outlining how to catch a fish, unlike Apple’s own Siri.

The limited capabilities of voice assistants like Siri are one of their drawbacks. To elicit a response from those AIs, you must ask them particular questions in a particular way. ChatGPT, on the other hand, has a wider range of capabilities and can write anything from business letters to holiday stories. Although it’s difficult to gauge Petey’s capabilities, it seems like you won’t have to work as hard on it.

Due to the ongoing addition of new features, Petey is still a work in progress. You just have a small number to work with right now. To begin with, you can distribute the comments to others “through SMS, email, or social media,” though the App Store blurb is vague about which platforms.

Regarding upcoming updates, various projects are in the works. According to what is known, van der Ploeg is aiming to improve the app’s general efficiency so you can ask it many questions, add a History feature so you can go back to a previous inquiry, and make vocal inputs the default mode.

For easy access, the app can be added as a complication to the Apple Watch face. The number of languages that are supported is increasing as well, reaching 14 in total. Petey now supports a number of languages, including Italian, Japanese, and German. If you’d like, you can enter your queries into Petey’s little on-screen keyboard, which is included. You’d probably be better off speaking.

Yet there are a few restrictions. One: You must pay $4.99 (about £4, over $7 AUD, and almost €5) on the App Store to download the software. You need an Apple Watch running watchOS 9 or later in order to use Petey. As a result, if you haven’t already, make sure to update your device. You may be sure that your privacy is safe because the software does not collect user data.

However, users of Android smartwatches are out of luck. Van der Ploeg responded that there won’t be an Android version since his “skillset wouldn’t allow [for] it” when asked about the possibility.
