Snapchat has just announced that it is planning on incorporating OpenAI’s ChatGPT into its popular social media platform. The company is working on bringing an AI chatbot of its own that is powered by the popular ChatGPT.
The photos and video based messaging service will be introducing AI chatbots as the Snap CEO Evan Spiegel claims that these chatbots have become increasingly more useful in everyday life. Snapchat’s new bot will be dubbed “My AI” and will be pinned to the app’s chat tab above conversations with user’s friends. As per official notes, the company plans to bring the chatbot to Snapchat Plus subscribers that pay 3.99 US Dollars every month.
Although, it plans on making this AI bot available to everyone of Snapchat’s 750 million monthly users. Spiegel further added that “The big idea is that in addition to talking to our friends and family every day, we’re going to talk to AI every day. And this is something we’re well positioned to do as a messaging service.” My AI will initially function as a simple and fast mobile friendly version of ChatGPT that is built into Snapchat.
However, the primary difference between the actual ChatGPT and My AI is that the latter on Snapchat will be toned down in terms of functionality. In other words, one can’t be writing your academic reports or essays regarding a wide range of topics for you. It will likely be used to raise the paid subscriber userbase number in the smaller run and find other ways to to monetize its otherwise free service.
