Ever wished you could have an AI assistant on-call, ready to answer your questions, brainstorm ideas, or even just chat? 

Here's a Cool Tip.  Use the new "Background Conversation" feature on ChatGPT.

This allows users to interact with ChatGPT through voice, even while using other apps or with their phone's screen off. 

But is this always-on AI truly the future we've envisioned? 

What are the implications for privacy and convenience? 

Here's how to do it.

• Make sure you have the latest version of the ChatGPT mobile app ( iOS or Android).
• Open the app, tap on your profile icon, and scroll down to "Voice Mode."
• Enable the "Background Conversations" feature.

You can continue your conversation with ChatGPT while responding to emails, browsing the web, or using other apps.

This is ideal for driving, cooking, or other situations where your hands are busy.

Quickly get answers, brainstorm ideas, or draft messages without interrupting your workflow.

One note tho, to end your conversation, return to the ChatGPT app and click the X to end the conversation.

ChatGPT's Background Conversations marks a significant advancement in AI accessibility and convenience. 

While it offers exciting possibilities for hands-free interaction, the potential privacy implications are worth considering. 

As technology continues to evolve, finding a balance between utility and privacy will remain a crucial challenge.
