- OpenAI plans to merge ChatGPT’s Chat and Work tabs in the desktop app for select users before rolling the change out widely.
- Codex will remain a separate experience; the desktop app’s separate ChatGPT and Codex sections can make the software confusing.
Why it matters: OpenAI is addressing a stated problem for ChatGPT desktop users: the app’s two named sections, ChatGPT and Codex, can be confusing. The merge combines Chat and Work for select users before wider release, but Codex remains separate, so the cleanup stops short of unifying every desktop mode.
