Have you noticed how easy it is with “Sign in with Google” or “Sign in with Apple”? You could soon see a “Sign in with ChatGPT” button from OpenAI. Therefore, your ChatGPT account may act as your main access point to download shopping apps, social media and other tools. They are currently talking with developers about bringing this to life.
Now that over 600 million people use ChatGPT, using it can make logging in quicker for you. As a result, OpenAI is now in the same league as big technology names such as Apple and Google.
How Signing In Would Work
For regular users
When you see a “Sign in with ChatGPT” button on an app:
- Tap the button
- Your ChatGPT app opens
- You say “yes” to connect
- You are logged in instantly
No typing usernames or passwords. It works like magic.
For developers
App makers must team up with OpenAI. They fill out a form sharing how many users they have and if they use OpenAI tools. Big apps and small startups can join.
OpenAI Already Tested This Idea
Earlier this month, OpenAI tried this with its coding tool called Codex CLI. Developers connected their ChatGPT accounts to get special benefits:
- Free ChatGPT Plus users got $5 credit
- Pro users got $50 credit
This test helped OpenAI see how the login system works. Now they want to bring it to all kinds of apps.
Why This Matters to You
Making life easier
If you forget passwords often, this could save you time. One tap and you are in your favorite game or shopping app.
Helping small businesses
Imagine a bakery owner using a baking app. With “Sign in with ChatGPT,” they could:
- Enter the app faster
- Get AI tips based on their ChatGPT history
- Spend more time baking cakes
Keeping Your Information Safe
OpenAI knows security is important. They plan safety steps like:
- Locking your data with special codes
- Asking for extra verification if someone tries to log in from a new device
- Letting you choose what information to share
Think of it like putting your login details in a locked diary. Only you hold the key.
What Happens Next
The date for this launch has not been set. They are accelerating their development. Those interested in joining the project can fill out a form. The way we use gadgets can be different as a result. Some people see your ChatGPT account as a possible passport to the whole of the internet, instead of only an answer file.
