It baffles me that none of the AI products have created an app like OpenAI have for macOS. It’s the only reason I use ChatGPT over all the others. There may be better services, but ChatGPT has productised their offering better than anyone else.

My hay fever seems to be hitting particularly hard this year. My eyes are so gritty and heavy, it’s been a long time since it’s had this effect on me.
