OpenAI Watch Update What changedOpenAI calls the new ChatGPT interface Intelligent UI. TechCrunch reports that answers can include interactive elements such as tappable buttons, editable graphs and task-specific calculators, rather than just text and static images.
Examples shown by OpenAI include diagrams explaining how an aeroplane wing generates lift or a bicycle works, recipe visuals, hiking maps and a personal savings calculator. Users will be able to dial back the amount of visual material in their answers.
OpenAI says Intelligent UI is rolling out globally with GPT-6 to Pro, Plus, Business and Enterprise users, with Free and Go users due to get it the following day. That makes this more than a product direction: the interface is arriving with concrete tools to explore and adjust.
