OpenAI Unveils GPT-6-Powered ChatGPT UI for 1 Billion Users as Visual Answers Expand

Summary
OpenAI on Wednesday launched an “Intelligent UI” for ChatGPT that can generate custom visual elements—such as diagrams, calculators and seat maps—alongside answers instead of returning only text.
GPT-6 powers the new experience, rolling out to paid users immediately and to free users on Thursday, with OpenAI saying visuals will appear only when they add value rather than clutter results.
Early examples included an interactive slug anatomy diagram, a San Francisco apartment affordability calculator with adjustable sliders, and an airplane seat explorer comparing four Alaska and Delta cabin layouts.
The update pushes ChatGPT further into multimodal computing and mirrors Google’s earlier “generative UI” move in Search, signaling a broader shift toward AI-shaped interfaces for more personalized software.
