OpenAI is rolling out Computer History for ChatGPT Work and Codex on macOS, an optional feature that records interaction events across apps and websites to build a local timeline of user activity. It is designed to help ChatGPT recall prior work and find relevant files or conversations, with controls to exclude apps, pause tracking, and delete stored data.
