AI Moves In: Shared Projects, Company Knowledge, and Atlas
Today we will look at some great updates coming out of ChatGPT that you’ll want to know about.
Next week we will give love to Microsoft users, looking at SharePoint Agents.
In today's video, you’ll see how ChatGPT now lets you share projects, connect company knowledge, and take action for you in the new browser, Atlas.
Update 1: Sharing of projects
ChatGPT projects have been around for a while.
They are a way to create a dedicated space for a specific project, client, or task, something that stays focused on one area of your work.
Projects also have memory; they remember their chats and improve at being true experts in a topic.
The limitation has always been that these projects were private.
You could create a similar one for a teammate by copying the project instructions and files, but now we can actually share and collaborate.
We can now share a project. I can share it with specific people in my team or anyone with a link.
Once they join the project, we can see each other’s chats and continue or branch off from them.
This means we can truly collaborate, work together on a client, develop a marketing strategy, or build a project that knows our brand voice or helps you draft proposals or other documents.
It’s a massive step from a capability to an actual part of a workflow.
Update 2: Company knowledge
You can now activate company knowledge in ChatGPT, either from a new chat or directly in an existing one.
It connects to your business apps, Google Drive, Microsoft platforms, Slack, and more.
This allows ChatGPT to answer questions and reason across all the knowledge in your business.
You can ask it about project status, summaries, contacts in a company, client updates, or even questions from your emails.
This is progress from standalone capability to real workflow integration.
It shows how ChatGPT is catching up with, and in some cases, surpassing, Microsoft Copilot and Google Gemini in accessing business knowledge.
It also challenges apps like Glean and Cassidy, which were designed to answer questions based on corporate knowledge.
Competition is heating up, and we’re spoiled for choice.
Update 3: Atlas, the agentic browser from OpenAI
Atlas is OpenAI’s new browser assistant, similar to Comet from Perplexity, who's been my hero so far.
It’s currently available on Macs, so if you’re on one, it’s worth exploring.
At first glance, it looks like another browser with ChatGPT on the sidebar.
But the magic is where we ask it to take action for us.
Atlas can browse any website, book holidays, organise information, start a Google Sheet or Doc, or even create invoices by copying details between tools.
Basically, it can do anything you can do in a browser, just like Comet from Perplexity has been doing for months.
It’s powerful and amazing.
But it also comes with risks. So, keep informed and update your policies before unleashing it on your team.
Atlas is now available on Macs, and they are promising Windows and Android soon!
Why it matters
These updates show AI moving closer to where we already are.
We no longer have to go into ChatGPT to explain what we’re doing; it’s there with us in the browser.
It remembers our context, sees what we’re doing, and helps us in real time.
This is how we will all be working soon, so we might as well get started.
What to do next
Try these new features.
If ChatGPT isn’t your main tool, that’s fine, these features are coming to Gemini, Copilot, and all the other players.
No one is missing out.
Stay tuned, I’ll share updates when similar features land in Microsoft Copilot.
See you next week.
