ChatGPT’s newest feature is like Windows Recall without screenshots | usagoldmines.com

ChatGPT’s desktop app now includes a new feature called “Computer History,” which was announced via social media post by Ari Weinstein, a Codex product manager at OpenAI.

Computer History allows ChatGPT to track your computer activity, creating a timeline of your actions that can then be used by ChatGPT and Codex. It’s similar to Microsoft’s Windows Recall feature, which also tracks your activity history, except Computer History doesn’t take screenshots.

In a demonstration video, OpenAI showed Computer History being used to do things like find the most recently used documents on the computer, check whether they were shared via Slack, and summarize what the computer user did in the morning.

Computer History must be manually enabled before it starts tracking, and the user can decide whether to exclude certain apps and websites from it. It’s also possible to delete entries from Computer History.

The feature is currently only available in the Mac version of the ChatGPT app. It’s not yet available in the European Economic Area (EEA), but OpenAI says the feature will be coming to the EEA in the coming weeks. It’s not yet known when it will be available in the Windows app.
