OpenAI launches ChatGPT Pulse, which will write morning briefings while the user sleeps

Milan, 26 September (LaPresse) – OpenAI has launched a new feature within ChatGPT called Pulse, which generates personalised reports for users while they sleep. Pulse provides users with five to ten briefings that allow them to catch up on the day's events and is designed to encourage users to check ChatGPT first thing in the morning, just as they would social media or a news app. This was reported by TechCrunch. Pulse is part of a broader shift in OpenAI's consumer products, which have recently been designed to work asynchronously for users rather than answering questions. Features such as ChatGPT Agent or Codex aim to make ChatGPT more like an assistant than a chatbot. With Pulse, OpenAI seems to want to make ChatGPT more proactive. ‘We are developing artificial intelligence that will allow us to make a level of assistance that only the wealthiest could afford accessible to everyone over time,’ said Fidji Simo, the new CEO of OpenAI Applications, in a blog post. ‘And ChatGPT Pulse is the first step in that direction: today we're starting with Pro users, but with the goal of extending this intelligence to everyone.’ OpenAI CEO Sam Altman said earlier this week that some of ChatGPT's new ‘computationally intensive’ products would be limited to the company's most expensive subscription plan, as is the case with Pulse. OpenAI has previously stated that it has a very limited number of servers to power ChatGPT and is rapidly building AI data centres with partners such as Oracle and SoftBank to increase its capacity.
