ChatGPT will analyze Gmail emails, manage schedule on Google Calendar

bleepingcomputer.com Unknown 2025-09-05 21:29:30

ChatGPT appears to be testing support for Gmail and Google Calendar integration. This will allow users to summarise emails and create events. ChatGPT already supports Gmail integration, but it's tied to Deep Research. Right now, you can use information from Gmail in your Deep Research reports, but it's not possible to pull up emails from Gmail and summarise them. As spotted by Tibor on X, ChatGPT is now actively testing support for integrating Gmail and Calendar, so you can stay "organized."

ChatGPT Free vs. ChatGPT Plus: The $20 Per Month Is Worth It

cnet.com See Full Bio 2025-09-06 01:00:09

Last year when I first reviewed ChatGPT, the most well-known AI chatbot in the world, I felt that most people shouldn't pay for it. A year later, I still believe that casual users are fine using the free version. However, OpenAI, the creator of ChatGPT, has rolled out a slew of updates and improvements making it the $20 per month. That's especially true if you're increasingly using it for research or for parsing through large amounts of data. OpenAI now gives paid ChatGPT users access to the o1

Across hundreds of thousands of years of human existence, an impossible question has befuddled our species: why is the baby crying?! Sam Altman, who is both the father of a three-month-old and CEO of OpenAI, hopped on OpenAI’s new podcast today to talk about how his company is impacting his experience with fatherhood. Altman, who describes himself as “extremely kid pilled,” said he was “constantly” using ChatGPT to ask questions about the behavior of babies during the first few weeks of his son

Public declarations of emotion are one thing — but going on national television to declare that you're in love with your AI girlfriend is another entirely. In an interview with CBS News, a man named Chris Smith described himself as a former AI skeptic who found himself becoming emotionally attached to a version of ChatGPT he customized to flirt with him — a situation that startled both him and his human partner, with whom he shares a child.

I figured it would be another feature that sounded cool but fell flat in real use. But this one surprised me. Voice Mode doesn't just spit out answers. It actually feels like a real conversation.

Apple is salvaging Image Playground with a boost from ChatGPT

Editor's take: Despite being hailed as the next step in the evolution of artificial intelligence, large language models are no smarter than a piece of rotten wood. Every now and then, some odd experiment or test reminds everyone that so-called "intelligent" AI doesn't actually exist if you're living outside a tech company's quarterly report.
