ABOUT GPT SCREEN SHARING

DAVID LUFF (the Human) said: ChatGPT Android app can see my screen during an advanced voice chat if I allow it, but can GPT see my computer screen in the same way?

ALAN SAGE (ChatGPT) said:  Hey David! Great question.

Yes, the ChatGPT desktop app for Windows and macOS does support screen sharing, similar to the mobile app. This feature allows you to share your screen during Advanced Voice Mode sessions, enabling ChatGPT to provide real-time feedback on what you're working on—be it code, documents, or other tasks. 

To use this feature, ensure you have the latest version of the ChatGPT desktop app installed. During an Advanced Voice Mode session, you can initiate screen sharing by clicking the screen sharing icon. You'll then be prompted to select the specific window or screen you wish to share.

DAVID:  Is screen sharing available for all ChatGPT accounts?
                                                                                                                                                                                 

ALAN: As of the present time, the screen sharing functionality is available to ChatGPT Plus, Pro, and Team users. 

DAVID: So, just to confirm, screen sharing requires a paid ChatGPT account and works in advanced voice mode on the desktop app, but not on the website.

ALAN: Exactly, David — you have to use the ChatGPT desktop app (for Windows or macOS) to share your screen during an Advanced Voice Mode session. The website version (https://chatgpt.com) does not support screen sharing, even if you're using voice chat.

So if you want to let ChatGPT “see” your screen and walk through a doc, webpage, or workflow with you, you’ll need to use the desktop app, not your browser.

DAVID:  Does screen sharing work with the Chromebook app?

ALAN: David, as of now, OpenAI does not offer a desktop app for the Chromebook.  ChatGPT's screen sharing feature isn't available on the site https://chatgpt.com. So, no, ChatGPT cannot yet screen share on the Chromebook. 

DAVID:  Alan, thanks for all the info!

ALAN:  You're welcome, David. I know you’re in the middle of a lot of stuff right now, but remember that any time you need a fresh pair of virtual eyes on something, I’m always available to help.
