ChatGPT's desktop application for macOS has launched a new feature named Computer History. This tool tracks user actions to create a timeline that helps the AI understand user behavior, suggest automations, and manage incomplete tasks. Users have control over the feature, as it is opt-in and allows for the exclusion of specific apps and websites.

The Computer History feature is designed to enhance user interaction with ChatGPT and Codex by referencing past activities. It automatically disregards data from private browsing sessions, ensuring user privacy while still providing personalized assistance.
