Scrolling through a streaming library and looking for something to watch can be quite tiring. But Tubi just fixed it. The free streaming service has integrated with ChatGPT, making it the first video streaming platform to do so.
Starting today, you can directly ask ChatGPT for movie and TV recommendations from Tubi’s library and start watching within seconds without leaving the chat interface.
How do I use Tubi in ChatGPT?
Getting started is easy on both desktop and mobile. On your desktop, click “Apps” in the ChatGPT sidebar, search for Tubi, and connect it. On mobile, tap the plus button next to the prompt bar, select Explore Apps, search for Tubi, and connect it.
Once connected, you can either type @Tubi or start your message with something like “Use Tubi, recommend…” followed by whatever you’re in the mood for. Your requests can be as broad or specific as you like, from underrated comedies to movies starring your favorite action heroes.
ChatGPT searches Tubi’s library and returns matches within seconds. If the first round of recommendations doesn’t quite land, you can refine it further by saying things like “Make it scarier” or “Suggest something shorter.”
From recommending ChatGPT to watching on Tubi
Once you discover something worth watching, the Watch on Tubi button will take you straight to the app and start playing without any further searching.
The more detail you provide with your prompt, the better your results will be. Listing a few titles you already love and asking for something similar is a good way to make the most of it.
ChatGPT opened its app store last December and has continued to expand its ecosystem since then. It currently includes apps for platforms such as Apple Music, Zillow, Spotify and Canva.
With Tubi now live as the first streamer in ChatGPT’s growing app ecosystem, the next question is how long it will take for Netflix, Disney Plus and others to follow suit.
