Some US ChatGPT Pro users can now text their dot agent over iMessage or RCS
OpenAI has opened a texting beta for dots, its always-on agents in ChatGPT, to a limited number of Pro users in the US. After verifying a phone number in the dot's profile, you can message your dot one to one through iMessage or RCS; SMS, group texts and calls to the number are not supported, and texting is not available in Business or Enterprise workspaces. Texts pass through a third-party messaging provider, Linq, so OpenAI says they are not end-to-end encrypted, even over iMessage or RCS.
Why it matters: It is not available in India yet, but it shows agents moving into the messaging apps people already use. If you try it, keep sensitive details out of texts, since they are not end-to-end encrypted.
