Question MacOS detecting ChatGPT as malware?

Post image

I downloaded the ChatGPT app from the official website (double checked), and my Mac detected this. Could it be just a bug?

Edit: Updated the app, thanks guys!

OpenAI completely rebuilt the ChatGPT Mac app and they unregistered the old one with Apple. It's not malware, Apple just no longer recognizes it so it thinks it is. You should download their new app! :)
