The "ChatGPT for Kakao" service is now available on the PC version of KakaoTalk as well. An artificial intelligence (AI)-based conversation summary feature, which helps users quickly catch up on missed messages, has also been added.

With this update, ChatGPT for Kakao can now be used on the KakaoTalk PC version. Users can access ChatGPT for Kakao via the ‘ChatGPT’ chip at the top of the chat tab in the KakaoTalk PC version. Conversations with ChatGPT and previous settings from the mobile app are seamlessly continued on the PC version as well.

Additionally, to help users quickly grasp messages they may have missed, a message summary feature has been added within chat rooms. By clicking the ‘Conversation Summary’ button inside a specific chat room, users can see a summary of key points from accumulated messages. Even when returning to a chat room after a long time, users can catch up on major topics and immediately participate in the conversation.

A function enabling users to regenerate photos shared in chat rooms using ChatGPT Image 2.0 has also been introduced. After selecting an image in the chat room, users can click 'Create with AI' in the upper right corner and instantly apply their preferred image template such as ‘Anime Style’ or ‘Colored Pencil Drawing’. Images shared during conversations can be transformed into forms like cartoons or illustrations. This feature is also accessible through new posts in the ‘My Profile’ section, allowing users to apply the effect to their profile pictures.

A chatbot (beta version) has also been introduced to open chatrooms, enabling users to obtain various information from bots without leaving the chatroom. The chatroom host can invite a selected chatbot into the open chatroom, allowing users to ask and chat about inquiries such as weather or stock prices. In addition, a new feature has been added to allow deletion of messages within 24 hours after sending them in a KakaoTalk channel chat.

The new features included in this update are available from KakaoTalk v26.6.0 and above. A Kakao spokesperson stated, “We have expanded the user experience so that users can more easily and conveniently utilize AI in various conversation environments within KakaoTalk,” adding, “Going forward, we will continue to enhance the service so that everyday communication and AI experiences are naturally connected, based on user feedback.”
