ChatGPT Release Notes

ChatGPT can now automatically manage saved memories so it’s even better at remembering what’s important to you.

ChatGPT now manages saved memories automatically by keeping the most relevant details prioritized and moving less important ones to the background. This helps prevent saved memories from reaching capacity and helps avoid “memory full” state in your ChatGPT account.

To decide which memories stay top of mind, ChatGPT considers factors such as how recent a detail is and how often you talk about a topic. You can now also search your saved memories more easily and sort them by newest or oldest.

You’re always in control: you can turn off automatic memory management at any time, and you can see which memories are currently top of mind and choose to prioritize or deprioritize any specific memory yourself in settings. You can also view and restore prior versions of saved memories.

These updates are designed to make saved memory feel seamless, reliable, and easy to manage. We’re beginning to roll this out to Plus and Pro users globally on the web.

Overview

We’re rolling out two new ways to bring Slack and ChatGPT together: a connector that brings your Slack context into ChatGPT, and a ChatGPT app for Slack – an integration that enables you to chat with ChatGPT from inside Slack.

With the ChatGPT app for Slack, you can chat one-on-one with ChatGPT in a dedicated Slack sidebar – a space to ask questions, summarize long threads into action items, draft replies, and search messages and files you already have access to. Chats you start in Slack also appear in your ChatGPT sidebar, so it’s easy to pick up later from web or mobile. Semantic search is supported for Slack customers with AI enabled on Business+ or Enterprise+ plans; all other plans use keyword search.

With the ChatGPT connector for Slack, you can securely bring in context from your Slack channels and DMs, making responses more helpful Available in chat, Deep Research, and Agent Mode. Users can enable from Settings > Apps & Connectors.

Availability

Both app and connector are available to Plus, Pro, Business and Enterprise/Edu customers. Additionally, the ChatGPT app for Slack requires a paid Slack account; availability and workspace installation may depend on your Slack workspace settings.

Installation

Installing the app requires the connector to be enabled for your account.

Visit the ChatGPT app for Slack page to get started with installation.

We’re introducing Instant Checkout in ChatGPT and the Agentic Commerce Protocol that powers it, built with Stripe.

ChatGPT can help you find anything on the web and now with Instant Checkout, you can seamlessly buy directly from the merchant, right in chat. Starting today, U.S. ChatGPT Plus, Pro, and Free users can buy directly from U.S. Etsy sellers through ChatGPT, with over 1 million Shopify merchants, like Glossier, SKIMS, Spanx and Vuori, coming soon.

Instant Checkout

Instant Checkout makes it easy to go from chat to checkout in just a few taps.

• Ask ChatGPT a shopping question and it finds organic, unsponsored product results from across the web.
• Choose an item and ChatGPT shows where to buy, ranking merchants by factors like inventory, price, quality, primary seller status, and Instant Checkout availability.
• If Instant Checkout is offered, tap Buy, confirm shipping and payment details, and pay in one tap with your card on file or other express pay options.
• If Instant Checkout isn’t available, ChatGPT provides a direct link so you can purchase from the merchant’s site.

You’re in control at all times and give explicit confirmation to purchase. Payment goes directly from you to the merchant, not through OpenAI.

Agentic Commerce Protocol

The Agentic Commerce Protocol (ACP) gives merchants and developers a way to build agentic commerce experiences that work with their current systems and connect them with 700M+ weekly active users on ChatGPT.

If you’re a merchant and want to add Instant Checkout in ChatGPT, apply on our merchant page. We’ll be accepting and onboarding merchants on a rolling basis.

Developers can start exploring the Agentic Commerce Protocol documentation and example implementations on GitHub.

Parental controls rollout globally in ChatGPT

We’re rolling out parental controls globally in ChatGPT to help families guide how ChatGPT works in their homes. Available starting on the web today, mobile soon.

To set up parental controls, a parent or guardian sends an invite to their teen to connect accounts. After the teen accepts, the parent can manage the teen’s settings from their own account. Teens can also invite a parent to connect.

Once a teen is connected to a parent’s account, they automatically receive additional content protections, such as reduced graphic content and viral challenges. Parents will have the option to turn this setting off if they choose, but teen users cannot make changes.

Parents don’t have access to their teen’s conversations, except in rare cases where our system and trained reviewers detect possible signs of serious safety risk, parents may be notified — but only with the information needed to support their teen’s safety. Parents can choose if they’d like to be contacted by email, SMS, push notification, or all three.

Parents can adjust certain features, set time limits, and add safeguards that work for their family including:

• Set quiet hours, or specific times when ChatGPT can’t be used.
• Turn off voice mode, to remove the option to use voice mode in ChatGPT.
• Turn off memory, so ChatGPT won’t save and use memories when responding.
• Remove image generation, so ChatGPT won’t have the ability to create or edit images.
• Opt out of model training, so their teen’s conversations won’t be used to improve models powering ChatGPT and Sora.

We’re launching an early preview of ChatGPT pulse for Pro users on iOS and Android. This is a new experience where ChatGPT can now proactively deliver personalized, focused updates for you once a day. These updates are based on asynchronous research ChatGPT can do on your behalf overnight, synthesizing information from your memory, chat history, and direct feedback to learn what’s most relevant to you.

Updates are delivered once a day as visual summaries you can scan at a glance or dive deeper into. Each topic opens into more detail where you can ask follow-up questions. You can shape what shows up in pulse with a quick thumbs up or down, or by using curate to tell ChatGPT what you’d like to see.

If you ask for something new in the evening, we aim to include it the next morning, though exact timing may vary. Pulse refreshes daily, and you can save any item into a chat to keep it.

As a preview, pulse has some limitations. It aims to show you what’s most relevant and useful but you may still see suggestions that miss the mark. For example, you may get tips for a project you already completed. You can guide what shows up by telling ChatGPT directly. It remembers your feedback for next time and improves as it learns from real use.

It requires saved memory and chat history to be turned on, and you can switch pulse off anytime in settings. See ChatGPT Pulse.
