TL;DR: With the ChatGPT desktop app, you can create scheduled tasks, automate daily briefs or triage feedback, and transform local workflows into 24/7 team agents. ## Setting Up the "Chief of Staff" Chat Create a chat named "Chief of Staff" in your workspace. Connect it to Slack, email, and calendar, and ChatGPT will summarize urgent tasks, deadlines, meetings, and other context you need before starting your day. ## Creating a Daily Brief If you want to know what to do next, just ask. By setting up a scheduled task, ChatGPT will automatically send a daily brief on each workday, so you can see what needs attention while enjoying your morning coffee. ## Triaging Feedback Many tasks involve the OpenAI technical onboarding process, where internal team members submit improvement suggestions via Slack, Notion, and Drive. Set up another scheduled task to help triage this feedback. This task runs automatically in the background each week, operating within a separate chat named "Feedback Triage." It generates a Google Doc summarizing weekly feedback and posts it to the team's Slack channel. ## Converting to a Workspace Agent Currently, tasks run on your local laptop. To make them available to the entire team, you can convert them into a workspace agent. This allows you to run local workflows (like the triage process) in the cloud as independent agents. The conversion is simple: just ask ChatGPT. After conversion, the tasks run continuously in the cloud, and team members can use them directly from ChatGPT or Slack. ## Conclusion With the new ChatGPT, you can turn repetitive tasks into agents that run 24/7 to serve you and your team.
