The desktop app doesn’t work for Intel Macs, the response so far is that it’s not going to, that it uses features that require Apple Silicon. Does that mean there won’t be a Windows or Linux version for Intel PCs? Because if there will be a future version for Windows or Linux machines that have Intel processors, there should be one for Intel Macs.

Curious about this also? So I guess Apple will buy OpenAI and ruin it. JK!
