Say goodbye to asking ChatGPT the same questions every day. OpenAI just launched something amazing called ChatGPT Pulse. It feels like having your own personal assistant that works while you sleep.
Whatās This Pulse Thing All About? š¤
Remember how you always had to ask ChatGPT questions? Well, not anymore. ChatGPT Pulse is like that friend who remembers everything you talked about and gives you updates without you even asking.
Hereās the cool part. While youāre sleeping, ChatGPT is busy researching things you care about. Then when you wake up, boom! You get a neat little morning briefing with colorful cards showing all the important updates.
Think of it like getting a personalized newspaper made just for you, but way cooler! š°
How Does This Magic Work? āØ
Every night, ChatGPT becomes your personal research assistant. It looks at:
Your chat history ā What youāve been talking about lately
Your feedback ā What you liked or didnāt like
Your calendar ā If you connect Google Calendar (totally optional)
Your emails ā If you connect Gmail (also optional)
Your memory ā What ChatGPT remembers about you
Then it creates these beautiful visual cards with updates that actually matter to you. No more endless scrolling through random stuffš
Real Examples Thatāll Blow Your Mind š¤Æ
Students in the ChatGPT Lab shared some awesome examples:
Planning a trip to Taiwan? Pulse gave detailed train schedules and commute info without being asked
Training for a triathlon? Get daily tips and progress reminders
Big meeting today? Wake up to a ready-made agenda
Friendās birthday coming up? Get reminded to buy a gift
Want healthy dinner ideas? Get recipes based on your preferences
One student said: āWhat it produced was several logical steps ahead of where I was at in the conversation. The update was incredibly helpfulā
Youāre The Boss Of Your Updates š
The best part? You control everything!
š Thumbs up the updates you love
š Thumbs down the ones you donāt want
šÆ Use ācurateā to ask for specific things like āgive me Friday local eventsā or āfocus on tennis updates tomorrowā
šļø Delete feedback anytime if you want a fresh start
It learns from your choices and gets better every day!
No More Doom Scrolling! š«š±
Hereās something genius Pulse shows you exactly what you need, then stops! When youāre done reading your cards, it literally says āGreat, thatās it for todayā.
No endless feeds trying to keep you hooked. You get your info and get back to your lifešÆ
The Small Print (Because We Gotta Be Honest) š
Right now, ChatGPT Pulse is only for:
Pro users (thatās $200 per month yeah, itās priceyš°)
Mobile only (iOS and Android)
Preview mode (so it might not be perfect yet)
OpenAI plans to bring it to Plus users soon, and eventually everyone will get it.
What This Means For The Future š
Sam Altman (OpenAIās CEO) called Pulse his āfavorite ChatGPT feature so farā. Thatās huge
This is just the beginning. OpenAI wants ChatGPT to become like that super organized friend who:
Makes restaurant reservations for you
Sends you reminders at the perfect time
Drafts emails when you need them
Helps you before you even realize you need help
Is It Worth Getting Excited About? š
Absolutely! Even though itās expensive right now, this changes everything. Instead of ChatGPT being something you use, it turns into something that actively helps you.
Itās like upgrading from a calculator to having a personal mathematician who solves problems before you even think of them.š§®ā”ļøš§
The Bottom Line š”
ChatGPT Pulse isnāt just another feature; itās a new way of looking at AI assistants. Instead of asking questions, you receive answers. Instead of searching for information, the information comes to you.
Sure, itās still in early preview and is quite expensive right now. But this preview shows us where AI is going, becoming helpful partners in our everyday lives instead of fancy search engines.
The age of proactive AI is here, and honestly, Iām pretty excited about waking up to my personalized morning briefingāļø
