AFAIK, they already had a simpler form of this. It was kind of an obvious next step. Now connect it up to tools so that we can again comfortably do the things that are more precise by hand! The “pick a color” or “select the width on a slider” use case is coming closer.

All those recipe blogs and sites that have figured out the most inefficient way to deliver information are finally cooked.

They seem to be pitching something that pretty much all the decent models can already do..?

Obviously if your model is stuck inside a CLI terminal, then not so much. But in a GUI harness (shameless plug for my own one: https://juggler.studio, but I assume others can do this too), you just ask them to answer in HTML and they'll happily draw pretty pictures inline in the conversation. I've been doing this for ages with claude, GPT, Deepseek and others.

I am pretty convinced that businesses will be making custom internal software as a norm in the next few years, and this seems to be a slight push in that direction

Alright doing it here, all the functionality we need and no reoccurring yearly costs of tens of thousands of dollars. Took me a couple weeks to wire it all up with codex.

I think this means that the API "chat-latest" model is now serving a custom GPT-6 variant: https://developers.openai.com/api/docs/models/chat-latest

Interesting, in Chat mode, if you expand the model selector it says "GPT-6", but in Work mode it says "GPT-6 Astra".

The intro video is just lame. Those things never happen in real life.

They're making the point—apparently too subtly—that text alone is a highly limiting "UI" for many tasks. So it's great that GPT-6 can now communicate in a a richer interactive medium.

Then show a real task where text is limiting. Don't make up stupid examples.

They’re making fun of the frustration of trying to use ChatGPT purely through text for these tasks.

Like I said, it’s too subtle a deliberate self-own.

So you never have to assemble a bike or paint a room. How those are not real world examples? I find their video pretty cool. For people with ADHD or people learning by watching or children this is spot on.

They made fake, terrible artifacts (colorless paint chips, text-only city guides and instruction manuals) to show how terrible that is, and then "fixed" them. The problem is, in reality their examples don't exist. Paint chips have color samples. City guides have maps, pictures, and color. Instruction manuals almost always have illustrations. If what you made is better than what exists, you should compare it to what exists and not some alternate reality.

This seems like an expansion on something I was getting my agent to do which is use 'cards' to communicate using things like tables, rather than the ascii table stuff Claude code likes to do.

Unsure if this has been done already but the best thing I did was get it to create a list of next steps as quick buttons that it keeps updated in a docked card. It works well but occasionally gets stuck on some un related rabbit hole.

In the video, they showed examples of ChatGPT making interactive tutorials on how to fold origami, how to arrange colours/interior and how to assemble a bike.

Supposedly, people were struggling to follow written manuals and they needed an interactive explanations.

I'm not a mathematician and I would certainly love having a tool that would do ELI5 on some complex stuff, but I'm really worrying about using this too often and outsourcing my ability to do stuff to some mega corp.

For once Gemini did it first. I never found those mini GUIs useful though. More like a waste of time and energy.
