ChatGPT Adds Scheduled Tasks Feature
OpenAI · youtube · 2026-07-16
OpenAI demonstrated Scheduled Tasks for ChatGPT: tasks can be scheduled to run automatically at specified times for periodic work like daily briefs and feedback triage.
The video also showcased several use cases:
- Acting as a "chief of staff" to handle daily tasks
- Automatically generating a daily brief
- Automating feedback triage
- Sharing tasks with Workspace Agents in the team
- Converting them further into cloud agents
This indicates that ChatGPT is continuing its evolution from a "conversational tool" towards an "orchestrable workflow/agent" paradigm.
