Create a daily reminder Ask ChatGPT to send daily updates or reminders—like news, weather, or sports.
OpenAI announced the launch of ChatGPT Pulse Pro Preview on mobile devices. The system generates daily scannable cards (such as news, weather, schedules, and itinerary reminders) based on past conversations, user feedback, and optional calendar/email access, allowing users to receive updates without having to ask questions. Officials claim that Pulse aims to advance ChatGPT from a "passive Q&A" to a "proactive assistant," emphasizing data privacy: external application integration is optional and disabled by default, and personalized data will not be used to train models for others.
Tasks in ChatGPT also supports the creation of scheduled/recurring tasks and reminders (e.g., "Sports briefing every evening" or "Weekly news summary every Friday"). ChatGPT proactively triggers and executes the preset reminders at the appointed time. These two features combine to create a stable " daily briefing + timed reminder " workflow. Broader availability and desktop scheduling will be announced in a future official release.
