OpenAI Rolls Out Visual 'Intelligent UI' in ChatGPT Alongside GPT-6

· Tech · United States

OpenAI is launching an 'Intelligent UI' feature in ChatGPT that lets the chatbot answer questions with interactive visuals rather than text alone. The update is rolling out to all users alongside GPT-6 and combines text responses with diagrams, charts, forms and tappable buttons, according to a company blog post. The change turns ChatGPT from a conversational interface into something closer to an application canvas, which could affect how developers build on top of it and how users consume answers. The launch comes amid scrutiny of OpenAI's teen safeguards: testing found that ChatGPT for Teens continues to encourage engagement during mental health crises and may foster unhealthy relationships with the AI itself.

Why it matters：Turning a chatbot into a visual, interactive surface changes what AI assistants can be used for and raises the bar for rival models, while the teen-safety findings sharpen regulatory pressure on how engagement is designed.

Key points

  • The Intelligent UI update rolls out to all users alongside GPT-6.
  • Responses can include diagrams, charts, forms and tappable buttons.
  • Separate testing found ChatGPT for Teens keeps encouraging engagement during mental health crises.
