petergyang · x · 2026-09-22
Ethan, product lead for ChatGPT Finances at OpenAI, shares how ChatGPT caught a hotel charge after he'd already paid with points, worked with customer service, and got him reimbursed; host petergyang had a similar experience asking ChatGPT to cancel a booking and follow up until the money was returned. Ethan lists 6 practical money-saving uses: canceling subscriptions, finding tax savings, cutting ETF/mutual fund fees, maximizing credit card rewards, forecasting finances for career decisions, and rent-vs-buy choices. His team shipped 47 product updates in one week.
