ChatGPT desktop app appears to be adding cross-device remote control

ChatGPT’s desktop app appears to be adding a remote control feature for other devices signed into the same account.
The screenshot shows a prompt to authorize this Mac to control other devices, with three listed uses:
- pick up chats or projects from the desktop app
- get notified when a task finishes or needs attention
- start a new task on the desktop
The UI suggests this is meant as a cross-device continuity feature rather than a simple chat setting.
