Parallel agents move into the Chat tab
OpenAI says it has upgraded GPT-6 Pro in ChatGPT with faster responses and better use of plugins and tools. The company’s announcement says the changes are available to Pro subscribers in the Chat tab.
The larger interface change is parallel work. OpenAI says multiple agents can handle different parts of the same task at once, while the user follows each agent’s progress. Completed tasks can be opened from the Chat tab for review.
OpenAI did not specify how many agents can run simultaneously, which plugins or tools received improvements, or how much faster responses should be. The announcement describes the feature set and availability, but it does not provide benchmark results or an independent performance comparison.
OpenAI used two product names
A second OpenAI post published 27 minutes later repeats the same feature and availability details but calls the product “GPT-6 Astra Pro in ChatGPT.” The earlier post says “GPT-6 Pro in ChatGPT.” OpenAI’s posts do not explain the naming difference.
