ChatGPT App: macOS 14+ & Apple Silicon Required
Summary
The ChatGPT desktop app now requires macOS 14 (Sonoma) or newer and Apple Silicon chips like the M1. This means older Intel-based Macs and those running macOS 13 or earlier cannot use the native app. Here's the thing: ChatGPT is NOT ending support for older Macs entirely. What's interesting is that this change only affects the dedicated desktop application. If you have an older Mac, you can still access and use ChatGPT exactly as before through your web browser, like Safari or Chrome. OpenAI optimized the app for faster AI processing and better security on newer Apple Silicon devices. The bottom line: your older Mac can still run ChatGPT, just not through its specific desktop app. This ensures everyone can continue using this powerful AI.
