Picture your research partner reading the room, not just the headlines, but the code, the debates, the unpolished footnotes of human thinking. With the latest update to ChatGPT’s Deep Research tool, OpenAI takes a step in that direction.
OpenAI’s latest update lets ChatGPT pull directly from GitHub issues, discussions, and documentation. It’s more than a feature — it marks a shift in how AI participates in research.
Now, when you ask a question, you might get back not just code snippets, but live threads where developers debate trade-offs and implementation quirks. It turns ChatGPT into a research partner that reasons through complexity, not just recalls facts.
For teams, it means less trawling through forums and more time for real problem-solving. In the built environment, we imagine this eventually helping navigate fragmented standards and compliance documents — with AI assembling the context, not just quoting it.
Access is live for ChatGPT Team users, rolling out to Plus and Pro soon. The UK’s still waiting.
Caveat: source quality matters. Flux’s take? Trust the model, but verify the trail.
