ChatGPT's new Computer History feature logs keystrokes and screen activity on macOS
01
Top story
When a staff member asks ChatGPT a question on their work Mac, the answer now draws on more than what they typed. A new feature called Computer History monitors clicks, keystrokes, and unfinished tasks across the machine, building a timeline that ChatGPT can reference when responding. OpenAI designed it to let the assistant pick up half-finished tasks and suggest automations based on your habits. Firms should check whether the feature is enabled on staff machines and decide whether that level of system access sits comfortably with their client confidentiality obligations.
