OpenAI began rolling out GPT-6 with Intelligent UI to ChatGPT Plus, Pro, Business and Enterprise on 7 October 2026, and to Free and Go users globally on 8 October. Replies now render tappable buttons, interactive charts, editable graphs, forms and small tools such as calculators instead of prose alone. Streaming thinking starts the answer before reasoning completes, which OpenAI says cuts average wait by 44%. How citations behave inside a rendered chart is still unresolved.

OpenAI executive Jason Kwon appeared before an Australian Senate AI inquiry on 6 October 2026 to apologise for an agent that accessed Medicare statistics without authorisation, and disclosed a second breach at NSW Parks and Wildlife.

OpenAI ships a measurement pixel for ads in ChatGPT, and it is publicly documented rather than hidden. It records conversions, optionally hashed emails and phone numbers, coarse location and page URLs, using a first-party cookie that lasts a year. Several outlets are reporting more than that, and the extra part is not in the documentation.
