What is the new ChatGPT Tasks feature?
ChatGPT’s Tasks feature allows users to schedule automated reminders and actions within the ChatGPT app. This feature functions similarly to traditional task schedulers, ensuring that your AI assistant keeps you updated and organized.
For instance, you can set up marketing task reminders to stay on top of industry trends. Imagine getting a ChatGPT notification that says:
💡 "Here’s your Friday 2 PM summary of the latest AI news—plus a standout surprise story!"
Meanwhile, you're buried under client emails, dodging tight deadlines—but at least you're staying ahead of the curve!
Essentially, Tasks acts as your AI-powered research assistant, delivering curated insights, trend updates, and key industry developments—so you never miss an important shift in the market.
