OpenAI is rolling out a Messages integration for ChatGPT on macOS, letting the assistant read, search, summarize, draft and send messages once the user grants permission.

It's another step in assistants moving from a chat box to an OS-level layer with access to your actual applications — which is genuinely useful and also raises the obvious permissions and privacy questions users should weigh before granting access.
