GoKawiilOpenAI to merge ChatGPT's Chat and Work tabs in December
OpenAI announced it will combine ChatGPT's Chat and Work tabs into one unified interface starting in December, folding the agentic 'Work' capabilities into the main ChatGPT experience. The merged version will first roll out to select users for feedback before wider release, while Codex remains a separate tool within the desktop app.
GoKawiil's interpretation of the reporting above, not reported fact.
Combining usage allowances for ChatGPT and Codex into one pool means some users, particularly heavy users, could hit limits or face longer waits for resets, according to OpenAI's own notice. The redesign suggests OpenAI is trying to simplify a cluttered interface and push users toward more integrated, agentic workflows rather than separate chat and task modes.
