Ex-OpenAI engineer mocks ChatGPT's tangled UX: 4 browser settings, 3 password stores
sytelus · x · 2026-10-31
sytelus, who previously worked at OpenAI, posted a set of tongue-in-cheek "puzzle games" for people still working on ChatGPT, highlighting how convoluted the app has become:
- There are 4 separate places to set up browser access and 3 places to store passwords (bonus: figure out which part of the app uses which)
- The app has far more modes than just Chat, Work and Codex, and each mode's Projects behave differently in mysterious ways
- List all the ways things become unusable once a user has 100+ projects
- Draw a full 3D tensor of modes × devices × capabilities for users hopping between desktop, laptop and phone
The post is effectively a satire of feature sprawl and fragmented cross-device UX in ChatGPT.
