ChatGPT Arrives on Windows with Limitations

OpenAI’s AI-powered chatbot app is now available for download on Windows, but only for paid users. The early version can be found in the Microsoft Store. Similar to its Mac counterpart, the app features a dedicated window where users can ask questions and upload files.

Key capabilities include a preview of OpenAI’s o1 model capable of “reasoning,” which enables more advanced interactions. However, some features like advanced voice mode are still missing. To address earlier security concerns, OpenAI has implemented data encryption for locally stored conversations.

Although only premium subscribers can access the app currently, OpenAI plans to make it available to all users later this year.
