Sam Altman Details Upcoming ChatGPT Upgrade with Continuous Context MonitoringPreviousNext

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman has outlined plans for a future version of ChatGPT that could continuously monitor users' computer screens, meetings, calls, and connected services like email and Slack. Expected within six months, this AI assistant aims to provide proactive, context-aware support by understanding users' activities and offering real-time suggestions or task assistance. Altman emphasized user control over data access, with the AI designed to work alongside users rather than act autonomously, addressing concerns about privacy and surveillance.
