It's been a good year for AI. In many cases, it's been the year of AI with the biggest tech companies rolling out autonoumous AI tools that can do everything from shop and book flights to intuitively help our writing stand out. We've seen huge advancements in image generation with Nano Banana Pro and even Grok suprised us (in good and controversial ways).
But with all the excitement of new AI tools, there's one that I just couldn't find a good use for — and I gave it a solid try. Chances are, unless you have ChatGPT Pro you haven't heard of it or tried it. Take it from me, you aren't missing much.
OpenAI's Pulse was the company's effort to get ChatGPT to start the conversation. Marketed as a "proactive AI" feature, the premise is that ChatGPT stays busy while you sleep, as it scans the chats of the day to deliver a personalized morning briefing.
Sam Altman even praised it on X writing that it's his “favorite feature of ChatGPT so far.”
Sorry, Sam. I think it’s one of the worst.
