OpenAI Chronicle: Now ChatGPT can see your screen and will understand all the work without telling you, know what is this telepathy feature

News India Live, Digital Desk: Imagine you’re working on a coding project or document and you don’t need to tell the AI ​​what you’re doing. New feature of OpenAI ‘Chronicle’ (Chronicle) does exactly the same thing. Sam Altman called it “Telepathy” An experience like telepathy has been described, where AI automatically understands your work by ‘reading’ your screen.

What is Chronicle and how does it work?

This is a ‘screen-reading memory’ feature that works in the background:

screen capture: This feature takes screenshots of your screen from time to time.

Cloud Processing: These images are sent to OpenAI’s servers, where the AI ​​(through OCR and visual analysis) understands which app, code, or file you are working on.

Local Memory: After processing, the AI ​​produces a text summary (Markdown file) that is stored on your computer.

Reference without prompt: The next time you ask something (like: “Fix this error” or “Summarize that file”), the AI ​​remembers your previous screen activity and responds immediately.

The 3 biggest features of Chronicle:

Understanding ‘This’ and ‘That’: Now you can tell AI to “fix this” or “move that project forward”. You will not need to copy-paste the entire file.

Workflow Learning: It learns the way you work, the tools you use, and your projects over time.

Time Saving: The effort of repeatedly setting context or writing long prompts is eliminated.

Privacy and Security:

Since it is constantly viewing your screen, there are some privacy concerns:

Data Storage: Screen captures are automatically deleted after 6 hours, but the summary files remain saved on your device.

Control: You can pause or disable it whenever you want. It is advisable to keep it off when working on sensitive information (like bank details).

Unencrypted files: According to reports, local memory files are unencrypted, which means they can be read by other apps when the device is accessed.

Who will get this feature and how?

Platform: At present it is only macOS Available on ‘Codex’ app for.

Subscription: it’s just now ChatGPT Pro Released as a ‘Research Preview’ for subscribers.

Area: It is not currently available in the European Union (EU), UK and Switzerland due to data privacy regulations (such as GDPR).
