I'm surprised it took this long to have an official ChatGPT app.

Yeah, I am surprised as well. That much said I'll take a hard pass on this one.

I'm genuinely curious...why are you passing? I've used it web chatgpt a few times and it seems to have good use for summarizing answers to questions for me. Is it security concerns for the app or overall decline in performance?

That's a fair question to ask. For me it comes down to principles. I reject 99% of software and technology that is not free and open source. I make some begrudging allowances for favorite games of mine. I don't trust corporations to be responsible with this tool. It's purely a principles and ethics thing for me. I also believe that there are things AI should never be entrusted to do.

Thank you for your answer. I can get on board with that but at the same time at the end of the day chatgpt and other AI/advanced software are shiny new toys that will be hard to resist. I know I'll be part of the problem as it progresses but I appreciate that your opinions on this given me some food for thought...

Should you decide you want to continue to pursue your interest in AI, I would ask that you proceed with moral clarity and with proper ethics. AI in the hands of responsible people can be a force for good. Be the one to call out a person or corporation for irresponsibly using AI. 🌞
