OpenAI has released ChatGPT Work, a turbocharged version of ChatGPT built to automate work tasks, analyse data, and create documents, presentations and apps, schedule recurring tasks, and tackle projects while users are away from the desk. The new agent plugs into popular work apps including Gmail, Slack, Teams, Google Drive, and calendars. It integrates Codex technology into the consumer-friendly ChatGPT, which now has 10.5 million domestic users according to Roy Morgan. The tool is powered by GPT-5.6 and runs across web, mobile, and desktop. A scheduling tool automates recurring work like weekly or monthly reports, and a desktop function called Computer Use gives the tool the power to “use your computer on your behalf to execute tasks in the background across your apps, tools, and browser – clicking, typing, and moving files where they need to go”. About 40 per cent of ChatGPT prompts from Australian user prompts are work-related, while more than 40 per cent of Codex requests are for non-coding tasks. Australia is a top-five market by weekly paying users, and between January and March the number of Australians using Codex skyrocketed sixfold. The platform supports workflows from sales, finance, marketing, data analytics, engineering and operations.
