OpenAI to merge Chat and Work tabs in desktop ChatGPT
Prepared by Sintelligent with the help of SI. Published in SI: . Updated: .
Users will no longer need to move a project manually between conversation and execution, although the simpler interface will share one usage allowance for chat and coding.
In an email to users, OpenAI said it would first enable the combined interface for a small group and gather feedback before a wider rollout. A single window will let users move from discussing an idea to execution: attach files and plugins, request a website or presentation, and guide ChatGPT's work on the web. Codex will remain a separate part of the desktop app. ChatGPT and Codex will draw from a shared token pool; OpenAI expects most users to see little change, but limits may run out more frequently during intensive work.
