ChatGPT Pulse is a new feature that turns your data into a daily digest
ChatGPT Pro users have a new way to feed their data to the machine.
OpenAI's flagship product got a new feature this week called ChatGPT Pulse, as outlined in a company blog post. Pulse is available as a preview now for ChatGPT Pro users on mobile only.
ChatGPT Pulse takes your chat history and, if you feel up to it, your Gmail and Google Calendar data and synthesizes it all into a daily set of personalized updates for your perusal. If you have a trip to London, it'll offer tips for fun things to do there, according to an example screenshot in the blog post.

According to OpenAI, this is meant to be a quick hub you glance at in the morning, not necessarily something you check throughout the day. That said, it seems like you can turn any of its recommendations into chat topics, if you want. It should also be noted that connecting Gmail and Calendar to Pulse seems to be optional, in case you're not a fan of OpenAI having that much of your personal data on hand.
AI-powered personal daily digests aren't necessarily new, as the latest flagship phones from Google and Samsung offer their own built-in versions of this sort of thing. A platform-agnostic version that can theoretically work on any smartphone while referencing ChatGPT conversation data could be a winner for some people, though, especially those on iOS.
