OpenAI has announced that ChatGPT is currently rolling out to Android users this week, and this comes two months after the launch of the artificial intelligence (AI) chatbot on iOS.

Android users can pre-register for the app on the Google Play Store, and while the app is free, pre-registration guarantees that it will be installed on your device once it goes live.

OpenAI wrote on Twitter: “Announcing ChatGPT for Android! The app will roll out to users next week and you can pre-order from the Google Play Store starting today.”

The Google Play Store listing highlights that the app is free and will sync your history across all your devices and stay up-to-date with OpenAI’s latest model improvements.

Currently, Android users can access ChatGPT through a browser or Microsoft’s ChatGPT-4 powered Bing app. That said, an independent app is likely to be beneficial to users.

TechCrunch reported that the app had amassed more than half a million downloads within six days of its App Store launch, proving popular with iOS users.

Powered by OpenAI’s grand language model GPT-4, researchers have raised concerns about a deterioration in ChatGPT’s response to prompts. It was a team of three researchers from Stanford and UC Berkeley that measured the qualitative aspects of GPT-4 and its predecessor, GPT-3.5, in four main categories:

Solve math problems Generate code Answer sensitive questions Visual reasoning The team only noticed improvements in the chatbot’s visual reasoning, with GPT-4 showing noticeable declines in the other three categories.

Matei Zaharia, one of the researchers, said it was “very difficult” to pinpoint the cause of the deterioration. “It could certainly be that RLHF (reinforcement learning from human feedback) and fine-tuning are hitting a wall, but they could also be bugs. It definitely seems tricky to manage quality,” Zaharia added.

The team has plans for a longer follow-up study, and Zaharia asked his Twitter followers for feedback on what questions they should use to measure GPT performance.
