You can now use ChatGPT Voice right inside chat—no separate mode needed. You can talk, watch answers appear, review earlier messages, and see visuals like images or maps in real time. If you prefer the original experience, turn on “Separate mode” under Settings → Voice Mode. Rolling out to all users on mobile and web. Just update your app.

The White House just launched the Genesis Mission—a national effort to accelerate scientific discovery using AI. It’s a major step toward giving American scientists the data, compute, and tools they need to innovate faster. The Genesis Mission recognizes what we’ve seen firsthand in our partnerships with Argonne, Lawrence Livermore, Los Alamos, Oak Ridge, and others. When America’s world-class datasets, secure research infrastructure, and frontier AI come together, the U.S. can lead in energy, biotech, advanced manufacturing, semiconductors, and critical materials. Read more about the Genesis Mission: https://lnkd.in/gZuaFP3H We’re already seeing early examples of AI accelerating science. With GPT-5, mathematicians, physicists, and biologists are making faster progress on real problems and saving weeks or months. AI is the next great scientific instrument, helping experts explore more ideas, test more directions, and uncover connections that had been hidden for decades. The public sees the need. 60% of Americans worry breakthroughs take too long to reach them. 73% say we need new tools to accelerate discovery, and 69% see U.S. leadership in science as a top national priority. Faster discovery affects health, materials, and security. I'm excited to see the U.S. move boldly here, and we’re committed to contributing through OpenAI for Science, helping scientists across the country push the frontier of knowledge further and faster. Read more here: https://lnkd.in/g5RATC4A. We’ll be talking more about this in an upcoming Forum session with @bkspears9 of Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, diving into how AI and America’s national labs can work together to make scientific discovery faster.

Introducing shopping research, a new experience in ChatGPT that does the research to help you find the right products. Shopping research asks smart clarifying questions, researches deeply across the internet, reviews quality sources, and builds on ChatGPT’s understanding of you from past conversations and memory to deliver a personalized buyer’s guide in minutes. And to help with holiday shopping, we’re making usage for shopping research in ChatGPT nearly unlimited for all plans through the holidays—because it’s great at finding gifts, too. Shopping research is starting to roll out today on mobile and web for logged-in ChatGPT users on Free, Go, Plus, and Pro plans.

We’re releasing new research on how GPT-5 is accelerating scientific discovery. In collaboration with researchers at universities and national laboratories, the paper brings together early experiments offering the first signs of how GPT-5 can strengthen research across mathematics, physics, biology, computer science, astronomy, and materials science. The case studies highlight where GPT-5 can contribute today—synthesizing scattered results, surfacing mechanisms, navigating literature conceptually, accelerating tough computations, and even helping generate new proofs of unsolved propositions. These are early signals with well-defined limits. But the direction is encouraging: faster exploration, stronger workflows, and a path toward deeper, reliable AI-assisted discovery as capabilities improve. Today’s paper, “Early science acceleration experiments with GPT-5,” offers a clear, grounded view of what models like GPT-5 can and cannot do in real research settings.

Group chats in ChatGPT are now rolling out globally. Group chats are a new way to collaborate with friends, family, or coworkers and ChatGPT in the same conversation. Now available to all logged-in users on ChatGPT Free, Go, Plus and Pro plans. https://lnkd.in/dNhk2Jz8

We’re expanding our partnership with Target to bring new AI-powered retail experiences to millions of guests and thousands of team members. Target is extending its use of ChatGPT Enterprise and our frontier models to help teams work faster and support guests with greater accuracy. More than 18,000 employees at Target headquarters are now using ChatGPT Enterprise to reduce busywork and focus on higher-value work. Across the business, Target is using OpenAI APIs improve supply chain forecasting, streamline store operations, power recommendations, and support vendor partners with instant, high-quality answers. Coming soon: a new Target app in ChatGPT, giving shoppers a curated, conversational way to browse, build multi-item baskets, and check out using Drive Up, Order Pickup, or shipping. It’s a simple way to turn an idea into a full cart in one chat. This partnership reflects a broader shift underway across retail: using intelligence to reimagine customer experiences, strengthen operations, and build modern workflows at enterprise scale. We’re proud to work with Target as they weave AI throughout their business to create experiences that are more personal, more efficient, and more joyful for their guests and teams. https://lnkd.in/g7uxMWx7

We’re introducing ChatGPT for Teachers — a secure ChatGPT workspace built to support the everyday work of educators so they can focus on what matters most. Free for verified U.S. K–12 educators through June 2027. With ChatGPT for Teachers, educators can securely work with classroom materials and student information, and collaborate with colleagues. School and district leaders can bring their teams into one account with the same education-grade privacy, security, and compliance programs that protect student data and support FERPA requirements. Teachers are already some of the earliest and most engaged adopters of AI: three in five use an AI tool today, and those who use it weekly report saving hours each week. That time goes right back to students, planning, and the work that makes classrooms come alive. We’re working with leading districts representing nearly 150,000 educators, whose feedback will guide improvements and strengthen our support for schools. This is a step toward making AI a helpful, trusted partner in classrooms — guided by the principle that AI works best when teachers lead. https://lnkd.in/gHcy5QnW

We built a new kind of browser — one powered by ChatGPT. Ben Goodger and Darin Fisher join Andrew Mayne to explain why we built Atlas and how it rethinks what a browser can do. https://openai.com/podcast

We’re partnering with Intuit to bring Intuit-powered apps into ChatGPT. With these apps users will be able to take trusted, secure, and accurate financial actions directly inside ChatGPT — from managing cash flow to preparing taxes, running payroll, or getting personalized recommendations. As part of this collaboration, Intuit is deepening its use of OpenAI’s frontier models in its generative AI operating system. OpenAI models will help power a new set of AI agents across Intuit’s platform that can understand complex questions, surface insights instantly, and help users get work done through natural conversation. Intuit will continue using ChatGPT Enterprise across the company. This is a step toward making everyday financial decisions easier, faster, and more accessible for people and businesses using ChatGPT. https://lnkd.in/gsHuMyBX

OpenAI is recognized as an Emerging Leader in the 2025 Gartner® Innovation Guide for Generative AI Model Providers.
