Chat GPT tasks are back like they never left, even though they did, but they also kind of didn't. Cloud design went from a slow and expensive party trick to a creative juggernaut in training. Cloud code is getting in on the artifacts game and Codex can now just watch you work and then repeat back all the tasks that you just did. Oh, and we got a new model that scores higher than Gemini 3.1 Pro, and it's not from Google, Anthropic, or OpenAI. And it's open weights? What? Yeah. Crazy week of new AI features that you can use today. So while we were all paying so close attention to what was happening with Anthropic and the U.S. government and Fable 5, well... Everyone just released a ton of new AI features that you can start using today.
Jordan Wilson 1:15
But unless you were spending hours every single day keeping up with it like I do, you probably missed a lot of these new updates. That's why we have our Friday features show that brings you a bunch of new AI upgrades that you don't have to wait for. No wait lists. No coming soon.

How did ChatGPT replace Pulse with scheduled Tasks and what can Tasks do now?

Jordan Wilson 1:36
Go use them now. So welcome to Everyday AI. But let's talk about what you're going to learn on today's show. So you're going to learn why ChatGPT getting rid of one feature was actually a big upgrade. You're going to know the simple cloud code design upgrade that will make an instant difference. And you'll know if one of the biggest name in tech will make a dent in the AI avatar space. All right, let's start. Welcome to Everyday AI. My name is Jordan Molson. We do this thing for you. It's a daily live stream, podcast, and free daily newsletter helping everyday business leaders like you and me not just keep up with all of these updates, but I tell you what to use, what not, and how to use it to grow your company and career.
Jordan Wilson 2:24
So it starts here with the unedited, unscripted live stream podcast, but make sure to go to our website at youreverydayai.com. And we're going to give you not just the recap of today's show with all the important links so you can go try all these new features, but also we're going to give you all of the other AI news and updates you need to know to be the smartest person in AI at your company. All right, let's get straight into it. A ton going on. Let's start with ChatGPT tasks. So this is technically something getting taken away because this announcement is actually ChatGPT's pulse going away and being replaced by ChatGPT tasks. Let me explain. So before Chad GPT tasks was first, right? And then OpenAI kind of demoed and slowly rolled out this thing called Pulse, which was this proactive kind of agent that gave you kind of like a nice little web page, you know, every single day.
Jordan Wilson 3:28
based on your interests, different things that you were using chat GPT for, et cetera. Personally, I didn't like pulse. I thought it was hard to steer. I didn't find a lot of value, but the thing that I actually disliked was that on my chat GPT pro plan, at least I couldn't use schedule tasks anymore because schedule tasks were the precursor to pulse. And then they kind of got rid of tasks on the pro plan. And I'm like, oh my gosh, I need my task back. and well now tasks are back but they're just back because pulse is gone but now tasks are rolling out to everyone confusing i know all right so here's what it is so chat gpt can now perform tasks proactively in the background including setting reminders managing recurring work and monitoring connected apps on the web on a schedule
Jordan Wilson 4:21
So if you look in the left-hand side, there should be a new dedicated scheduled page in the ChatGPT sidebar that lets users view, pause, resume, edit, and delete all active tasks in one place. So like I said, with this, OpenAI is sunsetting Pulse, that personalized daily summary thing, And instead everything is moving over to tasks. So who has updates? Well, this is starting to roll out now to essentially all paid plans.
