Quite a few chatbots are available for WhatsApp that allows users to access ChatGPT, but the official bot is still missing from the app.

But now it looks like Open AI will launch 1-800-ChatGPT for users in the US and Canada, which will allow users to have conversations with ChatGPT.

If you live in the US or Canada, you can start a conversation with ChatGPT by calling 1-800-242-8478 or messaging the number via WhatsApp.

While users in the US and Canada can initiate a call to the given number to access ChatGPT, if they live in other countries, they can access the chatbot on WhatsApp.
