OpenAI has recently launched a new beta feature in ChatGPT called 'Tasks'. This functionality allows users to schedule future actions and reminders, expanding ChatGPT's capabilities beyond basic conversations. Users can now set up both one-time and recurring tasks. These tasks could include daily summaries of news or sports scores, scheduled searches, or even conditional alerts based on specific criteria. The implementation uses the iCal VEVENT format for scheduling and is integrated through a tool in the system prompt.

The Tasks feature can be accessed through the "4o with scheduled tasks" model option on the ChatGPT website. Tasks can be managed through chat threads or a dedicated Tasks section, which simplifies modification and cancellation. Notifications are delivered across web, desktop, and mobile platforms upon task completion. Although it's still in beta, this feature aims to make ChatGPT a more versatile AI assistant, capable of automating daily tasks and workflows. Some users have reported early beta bugs with push notifications and date formats.
