OpenAI announced ChatGPT Work on July 9th, and since then, the company has been rapidly iterating on the product. ChatGPT Work is actually two products: Work Cloud, accessible via chatgpt.com or the ChatGPT mobile apps, and Work Local, available through the ChatGPT desktop app. For this article, we'll focus on Work Cloud.
The interface for accessing Work Cloud is a tab selector, presenting it as an alternative to Chat. OpenAI's official guidance on when to use Chat versus Work is unclear, but after extensive experimentation, the key differences lie in the features available in each. Work Cloud offers model selection, including the option to pick GPT-5.6 Sol, Luna, or Terra, each with varying reasoning levels.
One of the most exciting features of ChatGPT Work is its ability to execute code with internet access. This allows users to clone GitHub repositories, install dependencies, and interact with the web. Additionally, ChatGPT Work includes a browser tool that can launch a full Chrome instance, load websites, fill out forms, and take screenshots. The browser can even run JavaScript against the DOM of loaded pages.
ChatGPT Work also allows users to build and deploy entire websites using Cloudflare Workers. These sites can include HTML, JavaScript, and server-side features. Furthermore, Work Cloud enables users to run sub-agents, a power-user feature suitable for complex projects. Scheduled prompt automations are another feature available in ChatGPT Work, allowing users to schedule prompts to run on a specific frequency.
However, the safety of ChatGPT Work is an open question. The product combines access to private data with exposure to untrusted content and a way to communicate stolen information back to an attacker. OpenAI could make this less confusing by providing clearer documentation, including exact system prompts and tool descriptions used by the agent.
Recently, the author of this article prompted ChatGPT Work to build a site that lists every one of its tools, grouped into categories, and explains what each does. The resulting site includes details of 223 registered tools and 44 skills. This exercise highlighted the complexity and capabilities of ChatGPT Work, but also underscored the need for better documentation and transparency from OpenAI.
