OpenAI launches ChatGPT desktop app for Linux | TechCrunch

OpenAI 于周二发布 Linux 版 ChatGPT 桌面应用，填补了开源开发者社区长期缺失的空白。该应用以预览形式全球上线，支持 Ubuntu 24.04、26.04 LTS、Debian 13 以及 Fedora 43 和 44 等发行版，并宣称兼容基于这些基础系统的各类下游发行版。OpenAI 表示此举旨在将 ChatGPT 和 Codex 扩展至所有主要桌面操作系统。尽管 Anthropic 已率先于一个月前推出 Linux 版 Claude 应用，但此次发布回应了 Linux 社区对桌面应用的强烈需求。
