On the seventh day of OpenAI’s “12 Days of AI” event, a highly anticipated feature, ChatGPT Projects, was announced. This tool is set to revolutionize how users interact with AI by enabling them to group chats, data, and custom instructions seamlessly. Available globally from today, Projects is rolling out gradually, so some users may need to wait before accessing it.
Why Projects Matters
Projects offers a much-needed solution for organizing AI interactions. For example, if you’re writing a novel, you can group notes, files, and chats within a project, allowing every new conversation to access relevant data without resending files. This feature aligns with OpenAI’s goal of making ChatGPT more personalized and efficient.
Key Features of ChatGPT Projects
Unified Grouping: Combine chats, files, and instructions in one place, functioning like a folder for your AI workflows.
Cross-Feature Integration: Use all ChatGPT capabilities, including SearchGPT, Canvas, and coding tools, within a project.
Seamless Data Sharing: Each chat within a project can access shared information, streamlining multi-step tasks.
Custom Instructions: Tailor instructions specifically for a project, overriding general settings to fit unique needs. Real-World Applications
Secret Santa Organizer: Upload rules, budgets, and spreadsheets, and let ChatGPT manage assignments while following your instructions.
Website Development: Provide tech preferences and content, and let ChatGPT draft the structure. Hosting, however, remains your responsibility.
Demo Insights
OpenAI’s demo showcased starting chats from within a project, tagging existing conversations, and adding files. However, users are advised to be precise with their instructions to avoid unintended data use.
Other Announcements from the 12 Days of AI
Advanced Voice Updates: ChatGPT now features enhanced vision capabilities and a fun Santa Voice mode for December.
Apple Intelligence Integration: With iOS 18.2, ChatGPT becomes more accessible through Siri, with advanced vision and text tools.
ChatGPT Canvas: A text and code editor available to all users, now compatible with Custom GPTs and Python code execution.
