OpenAI's Head of Product, Nick Turley, recently shared five essential productivity hacks for maximizing the use of ChatGPT during a podcast episode.

He highlighted the launch of the latest AI model, GPT-4o, earlier in 2024, which brings enhanced functionalities to users.

One of the standout features is the 'Make a GPT' functionality, allowing users to create customized AI assistants tailored for specific tasks without any coding.

This customization can be applied to various applications, including language learning, data analysis, and even image generation.

ChatGPT also supports image interpretation, integrating with OpenAI's DALL-E to generate visuals, which can be creatively combined with text for projects like personalized cards.

Additionally, users can upload text files, documents, and spreadsheets, enabling ChatGPT to analyze content and provide summaries or feedback, a feature available for Plus and Enterprise users.

Users can also utilize the Remember feature to save personal details, allowing for more personalized interactions, although they can request the AI to forget information at any time.

This voice feature provides a unique conversational experience that many users find emotionally impactful, enhancing the overall engagement with the AI.

Turley noted that many users remain unaware of the document upload feature, which can significantly enhance productivity when handling extensive texts.

For those looking to enhance their interactions, ChatGPT's voice feature is accessible to all signed-in users, while an advanced voice mode with nine human-like voices is exclusive to Plus and Team subscribers.

Turley pointed out the potential for greater integration between text and image functionalities, suggesting that combining these modalities could foster creativity and collaboration.

This capability is particularly useful for creative tasks, such as generating personalized party invitations that blend custom text with unique images.
