On Wednesday, OpenAI debuted a new ChatGPT feature dubbed ‘Tasks,’ which can remind you of things. Tasks are now being tested and will be available to Plus, Pro, and Teams customers. 

People can convert ChatGPT into a reminder tool capable of doing basic and sophisticated tasks, like setting an alarm or reminding you of an impending meeting where you must make a presentation.

“We’re excited to introduce Tasks! For the first time, ChatGPT can manage tasks asynchronously on your behalf—whether it’s a one-time request or an ongoing routine,” Karina Nguyen, AI researcher & engineer at OpenAI, informed in an X post.

ChatGPT: A Reminder App

Unlike common reminder apps, ChatGPT can handle tasks beyond simple alarms. For example, instead of just setting a wake-up alarm, you can instruct it to “Set an alarm for 9:30 AM and motivate me with a speech,” and ChatGPT will deliver both.


“In chat or through the tasks page under the profile menu, you can schedule tasks you want ChatGPT to do, such as send you a weekly global news briefing, get a daily personalized 15-minute workout, or set a reminder for the future”, mentioned OpenAI on X.


ChatGPT: Repetitive Reminders


Tasks in ChatGPT can schedule repetitive actions like reminding you at 6 AM to drink water or prompting you to grocery shop instead of ordering food online. It’s a personalized assistant for forming healthy habits.


You can use ChatGPT Tasks to receive daily updates on tech trends or track stock prices of specific companies to stay updated. It will provide these updates for you without needing additional apps.


ChatGPT: Simplifying Everyday Actions


While such features aren’t entirely new, ChatGPT combines them seamlessly without relying on extra tools. However, free-tier users will have to wait for access to this new feature.


ChatGPT is a powerful alternative to conventional task management apps, offering both practicality and innovation in one place for people to manage things.
