ChatGPT Spaces brings a Notion-style workspace into the app

As much as I've been crashing out about ChatGPT today, there's still a ton of good stuff they've added "Spaces" was one of the dev day announcements that I've seen basically no one cover which sucks. It's an awesome new feature, if I had to rank the dev day announcements: 1) GPT-6.1 Sol 2) Spaces 3) Ultrafast 4) plugins/mcp stuff 5) "sign in with chatgpt" Sadly dots and cloud were both a mess, but that's a topic for another time. Spaces is effectively notion inside of chatgpt. I've set up a space for my YT channel which is now the pipeline for making videos. It's got: - the steps/checklist for each part of the vid (planning, recording, editing, packaging) - examples - premade prompts for repetitive pieces I've got prompts for ideating a video and creating the associated notion DB entry in the right format, getting the video ready for editing in final cut with computer use, getting the thumbnail face(s) out of the footage and ready for making the thumb Having this kind of "artifact" system be built in and naturally flow back and forth with normal codex prompts is very useful. It has issues, mostly around UX stuff. The "tabs" are weird and the embedded thread for each "page" is strange to use. It's a normal codex thread but also not, when u click on it it sometimes opens full screen sometimes in the bottom right. You can't have two subpages next to eachother, just the main page and then a chat next to it + subpages in the same "pane" It's pretty well integrated into the full system, you can tag spaces from any thread and again the threads u start in the chat inside of them are real codex runs so the computer use stuff I want to use does work quite well. This is what I was really talking about when I said there are a ton of products fighting inside of one app. This is one of many things rolled up in codex that most people don't know about which kinda sucks because it's great. Another great example of this was the in thread visualizations. Everyone thought it was novel and cool when we put it in T3 code, but it's been in codex for months (I stole it from there)
