What happened
OpenAI said on 7 October 2026 that GPT-6 in ChatGPT introduces Intelligent UI, which lets ChatGPT answer with interactive interfaces instead of text alone. Responses can include graphics, tappable buttons, forms, charts and interactive experiences used inside the conversation. OpenAI gives a calculator for exploring how savings could grow, a bill splitter and a game as examples of tools ChatGPT can build on request.
OpenAI says it built a library of native, streamable components and a compiler that processes the interface while the model generates it, so the interface appears progressively. It also says GPT-6 was trained to decide when a plain text answer is enough.
The rollout starts on 7 October for Plus, Pro, Business and Enterprise users in the Chat tab, and expands to Free and Go users the following day. Enterprise availability depends on workplace admin settings. Paid tiers get GPT-6 Sol and Free and Go get GPT-6 Luna. OpenAI says the models behind Work and Codex are not changing in this release.
OpenAI also says GPT-6 Instant starts answering 44% sooner on average than GPT-5.6 Instant for questions that need web search. That is OpenAI's own figure.
What it means for you
Our viewThese are OpenAI's own descriptions, and the 44% is OpenAI's own figure, so treat it as a claim until someone outside repeats it. The change matters most where staff already use ChatGPT for small calculations or comparisons, because an answer can now be a form or a chart instead of a paragraph.
OpenAI says the models behind Work and Codex are not changing in this release. If your organisation uses ChatGPT Enterprise, ask your admin whether the interactive answers are switched on, and check what staff may type into the forms they generate.
