GPT-5 has some added benefits for those who live in Google’s digital ecosystem.
Put simply, you can link up your Gmail and Google Calendar accounts to ChatGPT now, which will let the chatbot use the information therein to help you out when needed. In the GPT-5 announcement livestream on Wednesday, OpenAI dedicated a short live segment to this in which the demonstrator used ChatGPT to help plan out her day after linking her accounts together.

If you ask ChatGPT to give you an outline of your day, it’ll use the information in your inbox and calendar to give you a little brief on what to expect. It will build a schedule for you and even let you know if you have important emails you haven’t responded to yet. It’s not clear yet what this feature does beyond all of that, though even that will certainly be useful to some people.

There are, of course, privacy concerns here. Some of us have been using Gmail for a decade or more, meaning a lot of personal info can be hidden in there. Giving over access of that to a chatbot that vacuums up data by design might be a bridge too far for some users.
GPT-5 rolls out today, but as of this writing, it’s not yet online.
