OpenAI rolls out GPT-6 with Intelligent UI in ChatGPT
On October 7, OpenAI introduced GPT-6 in ChatGPT along with a new capability called Intelligent UI, which composes answers from text, visuals and interactive elements such as tappable buttons, forms, charts and purpose-built tools — and can begin answering while it continues thinking or using tools. The rollout starts globally the same day for Plus, Pro, Business and Enterprise on GPT-6 Sol, reaching Free and Go users the next day with GPT-6 Luna; Pro's reasoning option still uses GPT-6 Astra and does not support Intelligent UI, and the models behind Work and Codex are unchanged. OpenAI says users can dial back the amount of visual content in responses.
Why it matters: It marks a shift from text-only chat toward on-demand interactive interfaces, making response format itself a new axis of model competition.

Use website tools in the desktop browser
ChatGPT Work and Codex can now use tools that supported websites provide directly in the desktop app’s built-in browser.
Work directly with a website’s tools. ChatGPT can discover tools for your task without a separate connection. Select the arrow in the address bar to see the tools a page provides.
Site tools use WebMCP and require a supported account, model, and webpage. They are available in the built-in desktop browser, not through the Chrome extension. Existing website-access and sensitive-action confirmations still apply.
Use the browser extension in more browsers
The ChatGPT browser extension now supports Microsoft Edge, Brave, Opera, and Vivaldi.
Bring your browser into Work and Codex. Mention open tabs to use them as context, or ask ChatGPT to complete a browser task from the desktop app.
Side chat is available in Edge, Brave, and Vivaldi. Opera supports tab mentions and browser control, but not side chat. Update the desktop app before setup; availability depends on your workspace settings.
Set up the ChatGPT browser extension.
