OpenAI has announced a new scheduled task management experience within ChatGPT, aiming to transform the smart assistant from a question-answering tool into a digital assistant capable of automatically and systematically tracking and executing tasks within the app and on the web. The new experience, called Scheduled, is a dedicated interface for managing and coordinating all scheduled tasks from a single location, allowing users to easily create, edit, and track tasks across the web and mobile apps.The company stated that the new experience offers faster performance and greater reliability compared to the previous version, along with simplified task management through a dedicated page displaying all active tasks and their upcoming deadlines. The feature allows users to create reminders, recurring reports, and automated follow-ups using simple natural language commands, such as requesting a daily news summary or consistently monitoring a specific topic.
