Retiring Advanced and Standard Voice

Tue, 10 Nov 2026 00:00:00 GMT

We’re retiring Advanced and Standard voice from ChatGPT Voice on December 11, 2026. In July, we introduced GPT-Live, our latest voice model that combines natural conversation with frontier intelligence. Since then, voice usage has nearly doubled, and virtually all people using voice in ChatGPT now use GPT-Live. This change will allow us to simplify the voice experience and focus on improving GPT-Live. We've learned a lot from how people used both Advanced and Standard voice, and we're bringing those learnings into GPT-Live as we continue to improve areas like the depth and detail of responses, maintaining continuity across conversations, and better personalization. Our ultimate goal is to make voice a seamless part of the ChatGPT experience. Live video and screen-sharing will continue to be powered by Advanced voice until GPT-Live has this capability.

Texting your dot

Wed, 28 Oct 2026 00:00:00 GMT

Texting your dot is starting to roll out in beta to Pro users in the U.S. Your dot is now just a text away. Reach your dot safely and securely, through iMessage or RCS.

Introducing GPT-6 Astra

Thu, 03 Sep 2026 00:00:00 GMT

Today we’re introducing GPT-6 Astra, with improvements in coding, research, computer use, and complex, multi-step work. Astra can create documents, spreadsheets, and presentations that follow your templates and instructions, and adapt when you add requirements or change direction. Access is rolling out to a limited set of organizations. Astra is not yet generally available. Broader availability is planned over the coming days. Astra includes additional safety monitoring to look for cases where agents may not have interpreted your instructions correctly. If a potential case is detected, the conversation may be paused or stopped as a precaution for you to review and decide how to proceed. gpt-6-astra v1/responses v1/chat/completions Released GPT-6 Astra, our most capable model, built for the hardest end-to-end work. Use GPT-6 Astra for reasoning, coding, computer use, research, and document creation. It combines these capabilities to carry complex tasks from an initial request to a finished result, using the context and tools you provide. Key changes to consider when migrating: GPT-6 Astra does not support the `none` reasoning effort level.GPT-6 Astra does not support custom `temperature` or `top_p` values or log probabilities (`logprobs`).Tool calling requires the Responses API. If you use tools with Chat Completions, follow the Responses migration guide.Misalignment monitoring asynchronously checks for potential issues during agent work in supported Responses API requests. Checks can trigger safety alerts or stop a conversation for review. v1/responses Added new controls for long-running work with GPT-6 Astra in the Responses API: Async tool calling: Let the model continue working while your application runs function or custom tools, then return results as they become available.Mid-turn steering: Send additional instructions while a response is in progress over WebSockets, so the model can incorporate corrections or changing requirements.Change reasoning effort mid-conversation: Increase effort for difficult work or reduce it for routine follow-ups while preserving the cached prompt prefix.

More controls in temporary chat

Thu, 27 Aug 2026 00:00:00 GMT

We’re rolling out new controls in temporary chat. You can now choose to personalize responses in a temporary chat with memory, plugins, and custom instructions from your regular chat settings. You can also choose to save a temporary chat. How it works Personalized: When you create a temporary chat, you can choose to have personalized responses. Personalized temporary chats can use your memories, custom instructions, and plugins to tailor responses. They do not create new memories and remain out of your chat history unless you save them. Personalization can be set only when you start a temporary chat and cannot be changed after the conversation begins.Non-personalized: By default, temporary chats are not personalized. Non-personalized temporary chats do not use memory, custom instructions, or plugins, and they do not create new memories.Saving a temporary chat: When a conversation becomes useful for the future, you can add it to your chat history. Saving converts it into a regular chat, so it then follows your account-level personalization settings and model-improvement preferences. For example, if you have memory enabled and save a temporary chat, this will become part of your chat history and can be referenced to personalized future responses.

Improved dictation in ChatGPT

Fri, 26 Jun 2026 00:00:00 GMT

We’re rolling out a new speech-to-text model for dictation in ChatGPT across all plans. This is a behind-the-scenes update, so there are no changes to how you use dictation. The update improves transcription accuracy across languages and accents, including when multilingual speakers mix or switch between languages. Evaluations showed gains in Japanese, Korean, Chinese, Urdu, Vietnamese, accented English, and long-form Spanish, French, Italian, and Portuguese. Dictation is also more robust in noisy public spaces and workplace environments, with quiet or whispered speech, and when transcribing combinations of letters and numbers.

Admins and owners can set whether plugins are available for members to install or installed by default - for the workspace, or for specific roles. Admins can also view the apps the plugin uses, and manage the plugin from this view.

Memory improvements for ChatGPT Enterprise and Edu

Thu, 25 Jun 2026 00:00:00 GMT

We’re rolling out improved memory for ChatGPT Enterprise and Edu. When memory is enabled, ChatGPT can use relevant context from past chats to keep memory current and make responses more relevant as work changes, rather than relying only on details saved manually. Users can now: - Review a memory summary showing information ChatGPT may use to personalize responses. - View Sources below personalized responses to see relevant context from memories, past chats, and custom instructions. - Correct memory, delete a referenced chat, mark a source as not relevant, turn memory off, or return to legacy Saved memories. The memory summary is a high-level view of relevant context and may not include everything ChatGPT can remember or reference. For ChatGPT Enterprise, the improved experience will begin with an early access period of approximately two weeks. During early access, admins can turn on Use improved memory in Workspace settings. After early access, it will turn on by default for eligible workspaces unless an admin opts out. Admins and users can switch back to legacy Saved memories. This update does not affect Codex memory. Project-only memory remains contained within each project and does not use memories or conversations from outside that project. These improvements are available at no additional cost.

Codex Remote reaches general availability

Thu, 25 Jun 2026 00:00:00 GMT

Codex Remote has reached general availability. Use Codex from the ChatGPT mobile app to start or continue work on a connected Mac or Windows host, review progress, and approve actions from your phone.

Connections used since June 8, 2026, remain paired; older inactive connections need to pair again. The new DigitalOcean plugin lets Codex provision a DigitalOcean Droplet, configure SSH access, and connect it to the Codex App as a remote workspace.

chat-latest snapshot updated to latest Instant model

Wed, 24 Jun 2026 00:00:00 GMT

Updated the `chat-latest` snapshot, which points to the latest Instant model currently used in ChatGPT. We recommend leveraging GPT-5.5 for production API usage, but feel free to use this model to test the latest improvements for chat use cases. The underlying model snapshot will be regularly updated.

GPT-5.5 Instant Update

Wed, 24 Jun 2026 00:00:00 GMT

We’re updating GPT-5.5 Instant, our most-used model in ChatGPT, to improve conversational quality—especially when users are making a decision, asking for advice, planning something, researching options, or shopping. The model is better at identifying the underlying goal behind a question and carrying context across multiple turns. It also follows complex instructions more reliably: when a request includes several constraints or requirements, responses are more likely to address all of them and clearly explain why a recommendation is a good fit. When users add constraints, clarify what they mean, or push back on an answer, the model should adapt more effectively instead of repeating its original approach. Shopping and local business queries should also feel more useful. The model makes better use of location context to surface relevant nearby options and can bring together product recommendations, business information, and images more coherently when those elements are helpful. Overall, responses should feel more tasteful and cohesive. Formatting is less templated and more intentionally designed, with greater creativity alongside better restraint.

Safety Usage Dashboard on the OpenAI API platform

Large pastes are now attachments for Free and Go users

Mon, 22 Jun 2026 00:00:00 GMT

Starting today for ChatGPT Free and Go users, long pastes are handled differently in ChatGPT. If you paste more than 10k characters into the composer, ChatGPT will automatically convert the content into an attachment instead of inserting it directly into the text field. This keeps the composer cleaner and helps prevent large pastes from consuming your entire context window. You can still move the content back into the message at any time by clicking on Show in text field to convert the attachment back to a direct paste. This is already available to ChatGPT Plus, Pro, and Business users. Previously if you sent more than 5k characters it was sent as an attachment. The threshold has now also been raised to 10k characters.

Personal finances in ChatGPT

Fri, 15 May 2026 00:00:00 GMT

We’re starting to roll out a new personal finance experience in ChatGPT. Pro users in the United States can securely connect supported financial accounts, see a dashboard of where their money is going, and ask questions grounded in their financial context. Available on web and iOS, Finances lets you view spending, bills, subscriptions, net worth, and investment information in one place. You can ask questions directly in ChatGPT or use the Finances page to explore insights, review upcoming payments, track recurring charges, and think through budgets, savings goals, debt payoff, and other financial decisions. Users can connect accounts through Plaid. This experience is rolling out gradually, so some eligible users may not see it right away.

Memory sources and more personalized responses in ChatGPT

Tue, 05 May 2026 00:00:00 GMT

Starting today, we’re rolling out memory improvements to ChatGPT Plus and Pro users that make responses more personalized, useful, and continuous over time. ChatGPT can now better pull in relevant context from your past chats, saved memories, and, where available, files and connected Gmail app, to offer more tailored ideas, recommendations, and next steps. It is also faster at searching past conversations to find the right context, so you don’t have to repeat yourself as often. We’re also introducing memory sources across all ChatGPT consumer plans, so you can see what information helped personalize a response and make edits if something is no longer relevant. Tap the Sources icon below the response to view relevant saved memories, past chats, and custom instructions. Plus and Pro users may also see files in their library and referenced emails from a connected Gmail account. If something is outdated or no longer relevant, you can correct it, delete it, or mark it as not relevant. Memory sources may not show every factor that shaped a response, and we’ll keep improving this view to make it more comprehensive over time. Memory sources are rolling out on the web and coming to mobile soon. These updates are designed to make personalization more useful while keeping you in control. Memory sources are only shown within your account experience, and if you share a chat, those sources are not shown in the shared chat. You can delete chats, use temporary chats that do not use or update memory or appear in history, turn off memory, disconnect apps anytime, and manage whether your content is used to help improve our models.

GPT-5.5 Instant in ChatGPT

GPT-5.5 Instant is more factually reliable, especially for prompts where accuracy matters most. It also gives tighter, more direct answers without losing useful details, asks fewer unnecessary follow-up questions, and reduces clutter like overformatting and gratuitous emojis. For Plus and Pro users using ChatGPT on web, GPT-5.5 Instant can more effectively use context from past chats, files, and Gmail, when connected, to make responses more relevant. This can help ChatGPT tailor suggestions, pick up ongoing work, and reduce the need to repeat context across conversations. GPT-5.5 Instant is rolling out starting today to all ChatGPT users. Paid users can continue using GPT-5.3 Instant for three months through model configuration settings before it is retired.

Updates to admin-managed SharePoint sync

Thu, 30 Apr 2026 00:00:00 GMT

We are migrating the ChatGPT SharePoint app scope requests from delegated scopes to Microsoft application scopes, for the admin-managed "Deploy to your team" sync option. The migration helps ChatGPT sync selected SharePoint content and evaluate SharePoint permissions, including legacy SharePoint site group membership, without depending only on the files visible to the admin who completed setup. Additionally, admins and owners can configure Microsoft Purview sensitivity labels from app settings. These new scopes will need to be approved by a Microsoft Entra admin for the new feature set to be active. Admins and owners can conveniently re-authenticate the SharePoint app by navigating to Workspace Settings > Apps, and locating the prompt "Reconnect SharePoint for better syncing" at the top of the view, or by searching for the SharePoint app and clicking the 'Re-auth required' button to obtain the new feature set. This prevents the need to disconnect and reconnect, which will cause re-syncing of the index.

We’re rolling out Advanced Account Security, an optional setting for personal ChatGPT accounts that adds stronger sign-in requirements and stricter account safeguards to help reduce the risk of ATO (account take over), unauthorized access, and data exposure. With Advanced Account Security enabled, ChatGPT uses stronger sign-in methods like passkeys or compatible security keys and turns off weaker paths like password sign-in, email/SMS sign-in codes, and email-based account recovery. It also adds recovery keys, shorter active sessions, login notifications, and session management controls, giving users more protection and visibility across their account. Because these protections are stricter, recovery is also stricter. Users should save their recovery keys and keep access to their enrolled passkeys or security keys. If access to all sign-in methods and recovery keys is lost, access to the account may be lost.

In settings, you can manage the plugin and review allowed or blocked websites. Automatic approval reviews Codex can route eligible approval prompts through an automatic reviewer agent before the request runs. When configured, the Codex app shows an automatic review item with the review status and risk level, so you can see whether the reviewer approved, denied, stopped, or timed out before deciding.

Fast answers in ChatGPT

Wed, 22 Apr 2026 00:00:00 GMT

Sometimes, you just want the right answer as quickly as possible. We’re rolling out Fast answers, a quicker way to get responses to common information-seeking questions in ChatGPT, like “Show me the Seven Wonders of the World” or “Which football team has the most super bowl titles?” When your question doesn’t require a personalized response and ChatGPT has a high-confidence answer ready, it can now respond faster while still providing a useful, in-depth answer. Fast answers do not reference your past chats or memory. Fast answers are available globally on web, iOS, and Android for logged in and logged out users across plans. If you prefer ChatGPT to always generate personalized answers, you can turn Fast answers off anytime in Personalization settings. We’ll continue expanding Fast answers to more kinds of questions over time.

Simplified app action controls

Mon, 20 Apr 2026 00:00:00 GMT

Workspace owners and admins can now manage app actions with a simplified model in Workspace settings > Apps. In Action control, admins can choose whether an app allows all actions, allows only read actions, or uses a custom configuration for current actions. Admins can also choose how actions added later are handled by enabling all new actions, enabling only new read actions, or disabling new actions until they are reviewed.

Codex can now help with more of your work

Thu, 16 Apr 2026 00:00:00 GMT

Codex is becoming a broader workspace for getting work done with AI. This update makes it easier to start work with less setup, verify what Codex is building, create richer outputs, and keep momentum across longer-running tasks. Verify more of your work The Codex app now includes an early in-app browser. You can open local or public pages that don’t require sign-in, comment directly on the rendered page, and ask Codex to address page-level feedback. Computer use lets Codex operate macOS apps by seeing, clicking, and typing, which helps with native app testing, simulator flows, low-risk app settings, and GUI-only bugs. The feature isn’t available in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or Switzerland at launch. Start, follow, and steer work Chats are threads you can start without choosing a project folder first. They’re useful for research, writing, planning, analysis, source gathering, and tool-driven work that doesn’t begin in a codebase. For work that needs a later check-in, thread automations can wake up the same thread on a schedule while preserving the conversation context. Use them to check a long-running process, watch for updates, or continue a follow-up loop without starting from scratch. The task sidebar makes plans, sources, generated artifacts, and summaries easier to follow while Codex works. Context-aware suggestions can also help you pick up relevant follow-ups when you start or return to Codex. Stronger for software development Codex now brings more of the pull request workflow into the app. You can inspect GitHub pull requests in the sidebar, review comments in the diff, review changed files, then ask Codex to explain feedback, make changes, check them, and keep the review moving. Review richer outputs The artifact viewer can preview generated files such as PDF files, spreadsheets, documents, and presentations in the sidebar before you commit or share them. Memories, where available, can also carry useful context from past tasks into future threads, including stable preferences, project conventions, and recurring work patterns. Other features - Remote connections - We are gradually rolling out SSH remote connections in alpha - Support for multiple terminals - macOS menu bar and Windows system tray support - Multi-window support - Intel Mac support - New plugins - Improved thread and tool rendering

Control SCIM group discoverability in sharing flows

Thu, 09 Apr 2026 00:00:00 GMT

Workspace owners can now control whether SCIM-managed groups are discoverable in sharing flows like projects and GPTs. A new setting Discoverable by workspace users is available under Identity & provisioning > Directory Sync (SCIM) and is enabled by default to preserve existing behavior. When this setting is disabled: - SCIM-managed groups will no longer appear in sharing flows. - If a project or GPT is already shared with one or more SCIM-managed groups, those groups will be removed from the sharing list the next time the project or GPT is updated. This setting can help reduce accidental oversharing and ensures group-based sharing remains aligned with centrally managed access policies.

GPT-5.3 Instant mini in ChatGPT

Thu, 09 Apr 2026 00:00:00 GMT

Today, we’re releasing GPT-5.3 Instant Mini in ChatGPT. It replaces GPT-5 Instant Mini as the fallback model users reach after hitting their rate limits for GPT-5.3 Instant. Because it serves as a fallback, it won’t appear in the model picker. Compared with GPT-5 Instant Mini, GPT-5.3 Instant Mini feels more natural in conversation, with stronger writing and contextual awareness throughout chats. It outperforms GPT-5 Instant Mini across a range of use cases.

New Pro plan options

Thu, 09 Apr 2026 00:00:00 GMT

Codex model availability update

Tue, 07 Apr 2026 00:00:00 GMT

We’re updating model availability for users who sign in with ChatGPT. Starting April 7, the model picker no longer shows gpt-5.2-codex, gpt-5.1-codex-mini, gpt-5.1-codex-max, gpt-5.1-codex, gpt-5.1, or gpt-5. On April 14, we’ll remove those models from Codex for ChatGPT sign-in. Users can still choose from gpt-5.4, gpt-5.4-mini, gpt-5.3-codex, and gpt-5.2.

New Codex seats in ChatGPT Enterprise

Thu, 02 Apr 2026 00:00:00 GMT

We’re introducing a new seat type for ChatGPT Enterprise: a Codex seat based on flexible pricing. Codex seats provide access to Codex only - they do not include ChatGPT workspace access, and have no fixed cost per user per month. Using Codex requires workspace credits, while standard ChatGPT seats continue to include ChatGPT and Codex with baseline access and optional flexible pricing for usage beyond included rate limits. We’ve also updated the Codex Rate Card.

New Codex seats in ChatGPT Business

Thu, 02 Apr 2026 00:00:00 GMT

We’re introducing a new seat type: a Codex seat based on flexible, credit based pricing. Codex seats have no fixed cost per month, and provide access to Codex only - they do not include ChatGPT workspace access. There’s no minimum number of Codex seats you need to purchase, but because seats are billed on usage, using Codex requires workspace credits. For a limited time, eligible ChatGPT Business workspaces can earn up to $100 in Codex credits per newly added Codex seat after that member sends their first Codex message, up to $500 per workspace. Along with this change, we’re reducing the price of subscription-based ChatGPT seats by USD $5 / month (actual reduction may depend on pricing in your region). If you’re a current subscriber, the new, lower price will be reflected in your next monthly or annual bill. We’re refunding the pro-rated price difference on your current bill as a credit that can be applied to your next subscription renewal to account for the price change. Lastly, we’ve updated the Codex Rate Card to align with token-based usage pricing. This may result in a difference in what you’re charged. ChatGPT rates remain unchanged.

The new apps are disabled by default, and workspace admins/owners can review the app as well as the app's actions in Workspace settings > Apps to enable those aligned to their workspace needs. New actions (such as write actions) may involve updated scopes - admins/owners should check the Box, Notion, Linear, and Dropbox app pages for details, and authorize any scopes required. New users may not be able to connect these apps until the scope authorizations are met, or actions are enabled/disabled in alignment with authorized scopes. Members who previously connected these apps may need to reconnect the app after admin review to start using the updated experience.

Add sources to your projects from anywhere

Fri, 27 Mar 2026 00:00:00 GMT

Projects now make it easier to build a living knowledge base by adding sources from apps, conversations, and quick text inputs.

Additionally, new actions may involve updated scopes - admins/owners should check the Box, Notion, Linear, and Dropbox app pages for details, and authorize any new scopes required to support new actions (such as write actions). New users may not be able to connect these apps until the scope authorizations are met, or actions are enabled/disabled in alignment with authorized scopes. Members who previously connected these apps may need to reconnect the app after admin review to start using the updated experience.

Plugins in Codex

Thu, 26 Mar 2026 00:00:00 GMT

Codex now includes a curated plugins directory that lets users discover, install, and use packaged workflows built from apps and skills directly in Codex. Plugins are installable bundles for reusable Codex workflows, making it easier to share the same setup across projects or teams.

A simplified sidebar on mobile

Thu, 26 Mar 2026 00:00:00 GMT

To give you more space to view your most critical chats and projects, the sidebar menu is now simplified on iOS and Android. ChatGPT experiences available to you based on your plan and usage—like Images, Codex, Pulse, and Apps—now appear in a horizontal bar above your chats and projects.

Location Sharing

Thu, 26 Mar 2026 00:00:00 GMT

Users can now choose to share their device location so ChatGPT can provide more relevant information, such as local recommendations, news, and weather. Sharing your device location is completely optional and off until you choose to enable it. You can update device location sharing in Settings > Data Controls at any time. Enabling location sharing will also enable precise location. Precise location means ChatGPT can use your device’s specific location, such as an exact address, to provide more tailored results. For example, if you ask “what are the best coffee shops near me?”, ChatGPT can use your precise location to provide more relevant nearby results. On mobile devices, you can choose to toggle off precise location separately while keeping approximate device location sharing on for additional control. ChatGPT deletes precise location data after it’s used to provide a more relevant response. If ChatGPT’s response includes information related to your specific location, such as the names of nearby restaurants or maps, that information becomes part of your conversation like any other response and will remain in your chat history unless you delete the conversation. Parents who have set up parental controls can choose to disable device location sharing for their teen. Rolling out to all ChatGPT consumer plans on iOS, Android, and web.

Google Drive connector unification

Wed, 25 Mar 2026 00:00:00 GMT

Google’s file connectors in ChatGPT are now unified under Google Drive, providing a single app experience for interacting with your Google Docs, Sheets and Slides on Google Drive. The new Google Drive actions are off by default for Enterprise/Edu workspaces. Admins/owners can review and manage actions from Workspace settings > Apps. Locate the Google Drive entry and click Manage actions. Existing users of Google Drive, Docs, Sheets and Slides apps are unaffected - previously connected apps continue to work. After the new actions are enabled by admins/owners, existing users may reconnect the Google Drive app to start using the new actions within ChatGPT. New users can connect only to the Google Drive app to use Docs, Sheets and Slides actions, without needing to connect the separate apps. Google Workspace admins may need to re-authorize Google scopes corresponding to app actions - otherwise, users may hit connection errors when trying to connect.

Large pastes are now handled as attachments

Wed, 25 Mar 2026 00:00:00 GMT

Starting today for ChatGPT Plus, Pro, and Business users, long pastes are handled differently in ChatGPT. If you paste more than 5k characters into the composer, ChatGPT will automatically convert the content into an attachment instead of inserting it directly into the text field. This keeps the composer cleaner and helps prevent large pastes from consuming your entire context window. You can still move the content back into the message at any time by clicking on Show in text field to convert the attachment back to a direct paste.

Testing ads in ChatGPT (Free, Go)

Mon, 09 Feb 2026 00:00:00 GMT

We’re beginning to roll out a test for ads in ChatGPT in the U.S. for logged-in adults on the Free and Go tiers. Plus, Pro, Business, Enterprise, and Education plans do not have ads. The test will be a subset of users to start. We will expand over the coming weeks as we learn from this test. ChatGPT’s answers are generated independently from advertising. Answers are optimized based on what’s most helpful to you. When you see an ad, they are always clearly labeled as sponsored and visually separated from the organic answer. Ads are shown using information that stays within ChatGPT and is not shared with advertisers. This includes what you’re discussing, how you interact with ads (such as ads you hide or engage with), and your past chats and memories, if you have ads personalization enabled. You’re in control of this experience: you can dismiss ads, share feedback, learn how and why you’re being shown an ad, delete your ad data with one tap, and manage ad personalization at any time. Advertisers never see your chats or personal details and receive only aggregated performance information, like impressions and clicks. During the test, ads do not appear in chats about sensitive topics or regulated topics, including health, mental health, or politics, and are not shown to users who tell us or we predict are under 18.

Introducing GPT-5.3-Codex

Thu, 05 Feb 2026 00:00:00 GMT

Today we’re releasing GPT-5.3-Codex, the most capable agentic coding model to date for complex, real-world software engineering. GPT-5.3-Codex combines the frontier coding performance of GPT-5.2-Codex with stronger reasoning and professional knowledge capabilities, and runs 25% faster for Codex users. It’s also better at collaboration while the agent is working—delivering more frequent progress updates and responding to steering in real time. GPT-5.3-Codex is available with paid ChatGPT plans everywhere you can use Codex: the Codex app, the CLI, the IDE extension, and Codex Cloud on the web. API access for the model will come soon. To switch to GPT-5.3-Codex: - In the CLI, start a new thread with: codex --model gpt-5.3-codex Or use /model during a session. - In the IDE extension, make sure you are signed in with ChatGPT, then choose GPT-5.3-Codex from the model selector in the composer. - In the Codex app, make sure you are signed in with ChatGPT, then choose GPT-5.3-Codex from the model selector in the composer. - If you don’t see GPT-5.3-Codex, update the CLI, IDE extension, or Codex app to the latest version.

Update on thinking time settings for GPT-5.2 Thinking in ChatGPT

Wed, 04 Feb 2026 00:00:00 GMT

Jan 10, 2026: We lowered the Standard and Light thinking time as we observed users prefer faster responses. As part of this update, the Extended thinking setting for GPT-5.2 was unintentionally changed to be lower which we have now fixed. February 3, 2026: We made another small reduction to Standard thinking time based on testing. February 4, 2026: We’re restoring the Extended thinking level for GPT-5.2 Thinking to its prior setting, correcting the inadvertent reduction from January. Extended is now back to its prior level. We periodically adjust the default thinking time for our reasoning models. These changes are based on ongoing experiments to find the best balance between answer quality and response speed for users. The thinking level toggle introduced in September 2025 gives users more choice beyond Standard, allowing them to select the right thinking level for their question—whether they want lighter, faster responses or more extended reasoning when depth and accuracy matter more. Thinking time is not directly comparable across different models. Each model is tuned independently to what works best for users. We’ll continue to adjust these settings as models evolve, and will keep giving users clear controls when there are meaningful tradeoffs to choose from.

Codex app updates: Zed, TextMate, and PDF previews

You can tap any highlight to open a side panel with key facts and trusted sources, making it easy to understand the context without asking follow-up questions. Rolling out globally on iOS, Android, web.

Introducing the app directory in ChatGPT

Fri, 30 Jan 2026 00:00:00 GMT

You can now browse and add approved apps in the new app directory. Apps let you work with your tools and data directly inside a conversation—from interactive in-chat experiences to secure connections that allow ChatGPT to search and reference information from third-party services. As part of this update, connectors now appear in the directory as apps, making it easier to manage all your tools in one place. References across the Help Center have been updated to reflect this new terminology. For ChatGPT Enterprise and Edu, apps are disabled by default. Admins and owners can control which apps are available to users using role-based access controls and set which actions each app is allowed to take through workspace settings. Apps are available to all logged-in ChatGPT users, with availability and functionality varying by plan and region. Some apps or capabilities may not be available in certain regions (including the EEA, GB, or Switzerland) or may require specific plan tiers. Additionally, developers can submit apps for review and publication in the app directory, making approved apps available to a broader set of ChatGPT users.

Retiring GPT-4o and other legacy models

Thu, 29 Jan 2026 00:00:00 GMT

On February 13, 2026, alongside the previously announced retirement⁠ of GPT‑5 (Instant and Thinking), we will retire GPT‑4o, GPT‑4.1, GPT‑4.1 mini, and OpenAI o4-mini from ChatGPT. In the API, there are no changes at this time.

Web search is now enabled by default

Wed, 28 Jan 2026 00:00:00 GMT

Codex now enables web search for local tasks in the Codex CLI and IDE Extension. By default, Codex uses a web search cache, which is an OpenAI-maintained index of web results. Cached mode returns pre-indexed results instead of fetching live pages, while live mode fetches the most recent data from the web. If you are using --yolo or another full access sandbox setting, web search defaults to live results. To disable this behavior or switch modes, use the web_search configuration option: - web_search = "cached" (default; serves results from the web search cache) - web_search = "live" (fetches the most recent data from the web; same as --search) - web_search = "disabled" to remove the tool

Improvements to search response quality in Voice

Mon, 26 Jan 2026 00:00:00 GMT

Team Config for shared configuration

Fri, 23 Jan 2026 00:00:00 GMT

Team Config groups the files teams use to standardize Codex across repositories and machines. Use it to share: - config.toml defaults - rules/ for command controls outside the sandbox - skills/ for reusable workflows Codex loads these layers from .codex/ folders in the current working directory, parent folders, and the repo root, plus user (~/.codex/) and system (/etc/codex/) locations. Higher-precedence locations override lower-precedence ones. Admins can still enforce constraints with requirements.toml, which overrides defaults regardless of location.

5.2 Personality System Prompt Update

Thu, 22 Jan 2026 00:00:00 GMT

We’re updating GPT-5.2 Instant’s default personality to be more conversational and better at adapting its tone contextually, making exchanges feel smoother and more natural.

Rolling out age prediction

Tue, 20 Jan 2026 00:00:00 GMT

We’re rolling out an age prediction model on ChatGPT consumer plans to help determine whether an account likely belongs to someone under 18, so we can apply the right experience and safeguards for teens. The model looks at a combination of behavioral and account-level signals, including how long an account has existed, typical times of day when someone is active, usage patterns over time, and a user’s stated age. If an adult is placed in the under-18 experience by mistake, they can quickly verify their age with a selfie through Persona, a verification service available in Settings > Account. Users can check whether safeguards have been added and verify at any time.

Health in ChatGPT

Wed, 07 Jan 2026 00:00:00 GMT

We’re starting to roll out Health, a dedicated space in ChatGPT for health and wellness conversations. You can securely connect medical records, Apple Health and supported wellness apps so answers can be grounded in your own data. Health is designed to help you navigate medical care, not replace it. Health conversations, memory, and files are kept separate from the rest of ChatGPT and are not used to train our foundation models. Health appears as a new space in the ChatGPT sidebar. If you ask a health-related question in a regular chat, ChatGPT may also suggest continuing in Health. If you’re interested in getting access as it becomes available, you can sign up for the waitlist. We’re starting by providing access to a small group of early users to learn and continue refining the experience. At launch, Health is available on web and iOS, with Android coming soon to ChatGPT Free, Go, Plus, and Pro users in supported countries (excluding the EEA, Switzerland, and the UK).
