OpenAI launched Computer History in its desktop app, which remembers user activity across apps and websites. A third-party review notes it differs from Google's Chronicle: it tracks interactions rather than screenshots, consumes fewer tokens, and can create skills from history. This makes future interactions more personalized and requires less explanation.
