OpenAI adds shared workspaces, documents and slides to ChatGPT
By Automate Basics, written with AI from TechCrunch's original
OpenAI has announced Space, Pages and collaborative slides for people working in ChatGPT. The features let coworkers and AI agents work on shared files, documents and presentations.
What changed in ChatGPT
OpenAI has added several features aimed at office work, TechCrunch reports. Space is a shared area in ChatGPT where coworkers can keep pages and files together and work alongside Dots, AI agent personas that can carry out tasks for users. OpenAI says a page can be given instructions to check a team channel and update itself with what it finds.
Pages is for creating documents with help from people and agents. According to OpenAI, users can write, research, make charts, create images and present information visually there. OpenAI also introduced collaborative slides that users can create by describing what they need in ChatGPT. Coworkers and agents can then edit the slides and leave comments.
Who can use ChatGPT’s new office features?
OpenAI is presenting Space, Pages and collaborative slides as tools for coworkers who want to create and maintain work together in ChatGPT. Space could suit a team keeping related files and pages in one place. Pages is aimed at document work, while collaborative slides address presentations that need input from several people.
The TechCrunch report does not say which ChatGPT plans include these features, whether access is limited at launch, or what they cost. A team should not assume the tools are available in its account or included in its current plan. The report also does not spell out what permissions apply when a page checks a team channel, a detail worth establishing before using it with work information.
How do I try these features at work?
A useful first task would be a presentation based on material your team already knows well. OpenAI says collaborative slides can be created through a conversation in ChatGPT, then edited and commented on by coworkers and agents. Starting with familiar material makes it easier to spot missing points, incorrect charts or images, and changes that do not reflect the team’s intent.
For ongoing work, a team could consider whether Space helps keep related pages and files together. If using instructions that let a page draw on a team channel, check the resulting update against the original messages before relying on it. The source does not provide a setup procedure, so teams will need to check what is available in their own ChatGPT accounts.
