[June 8 2026] ChatGPT Release Notes Updates
SUMMARY
This video breaks down ChatGPT’s June 8 release notes including improvements to interactive charts, adding table of contents to longer chats, full-screen writing blocks for longer-form work, and the ability to send emails from directly within a chat.
TRANSCRIPT
00:00 Welcome everyone to today's video. Today is June 9th, and we're going to be discussing the ChatGPT June 8th release notes.
00:08 You know, we're just getting started with June, and I feel like already so much has happened. So let's get into it.
00:15 To start, there's was an improvement for web, iOS, and Android in interactive charts and answers. ChatGPT can now turn some answers into rich, interactive bar, line, and scatter charts directly in the conversation.
00:32 for a long time within ChatGPT, but there was always something that was off about it. Maybe the precision or accuracy about the chart just never was quite accurate.
00:43 So let's have a look together at how it's doing now
00:45 Okay, so we're here within ChatGPT, and I have uploaded a spreadsheet containing 18 months of company performance data. You'll see the data in a second, but what I've asked is for it to create whatever interactive visualization would help a CEO answer these questions.
01:06 What is driving growth? Where are we losing momentum? Which metrics should leadership watch weekly? And what trends would be easy to miss in a spreadsheet?
01:15 And so, just for you to understand the data, I've given it by month, the revenue, the ad spend, website traffic, demo requests, new customers, turn percentage or turn rate, average and average size deal.
01:31 Obviously, that's a dummy data. So, we're not only going to assess how well it creates this visualization, we're also going to assess its discernment in the best way to represent this data.
01:57 Okay, so it just completed, and it looks like, It looks like it's replicated the data here in this CSV. Let's see what the visualization looks like.
02:09 So, it provided us with a CEO growth dashboard. Now, this looks quite clear. In terms of how it's presenting to us the key information, I like that.
02:20 It then gives us this executive briefing. And let's look at the interactive components. Okay, I like this, how as I hover over this chart, over this line graph, I see this interpretation plot.
02:38 That's quite nice, right? And it actually is showing the values for each of those variables over time. I like that.
02:46 Then it created this bar graph. Showing us each of the, uhm, variables with its correlation and its 18th month change, whether positive or negative.
02:59 I like it. But, as you can see, I'm really liking the interactivity. And the accuracy in each of these plots.
03:07 Ooh, we also got a heat map here. Wow, and every single box, right, has its own interactive component. Very cool.
03:19 Let's see if these work. Download as a PNG. Sorry, there was a problem. Okay. Zoom. It's not zooming. Okay, I like the thought, though.
03:33 Yes, I do think that this is a big improvement. Though, from previous, at least from a few months ago, when I, when I used this last, I do see a big improvement in terms of both the accuracy and the actual functionality of the interactive components, of course, aside from Thank you.
03:51 Bye. It seems like, oh, okay, so that did work. This is to actually open it within the this data visualizer.
04:10 Cool. Okay, so not bad. I think, like, still it's lacking a little bit on the formatting, but I think it will get there.
04:19 I think the real test would be, well, I'm just curious. I'm a math person. Uhm, I have this prompt saved here.
04:29 I would love to see. I've asked it to create an interactive visual showing how the x value change on the unit circle also affects the y equals sine x graph.
04:39 I'm going to say, create a, an interactive visual showing how the, how one x value affects both x and representations are both the unit circle and the graph.
05:04 Just because in the past I've tried this prompt and it wasn't accurate or it wasn't functional. And so I'm just curious.
05:11 I think this will be the right real test as to how well this is working. And I mean, if it does, this has huge use cases for teachers and students for really deeply understanding mathematical concepts.
05:26 Let's see how it does. Now, the nice thing about, like, both of these is it's actually using the LLM to generate the code, and the code is what actually produces these results.
05:43 These visualizations that we're seeing, and because it's generating code, code can be a lot more accurate and precise, while LLMs, because they are probabilistic models, they're not always, now they've gotten a lot better, but they're not always 100% accurate, while code is 100 is code functions as a
06:01 calculator. Is it done? Yes it is. Let's see together. Okay, so, we see, we have our unit circle, if you remember from high school.
06:15 And we have our y equals sine of x graph. It seems like it's using this x value in both, in both visualizations.
06:26 And, yeah, this is our x value. So let's see. Nice. Wow. Look how beautiful that is, right? As the x value is changing, we see the x value increasing on the graph, but the y value is also decreasing, which is represented in the unit circle.
06:46 Oh, I love this one. This is from a math perspective, but I also love this from just appreciating the AI and what it's capable of generating now, because, like I said, I've tried this recently, and it wasn't able to do this accurately and, you know, functionally as well.
07:03 As you see, I'm moving this, and it's perfectly represented in both the unit circle and the sine graph. And we can reset it, that works.
07:12 Yeah, let's look at these. Yeah, also it's showing how the height is affected. Very, very cool. Yeah, so I'm quite happy with this.
07:23 I foresee lots of applications in terms of interpreting data within businesses for this release now. Okay, moving on, and perhaps a little bit quicker, the other update we see is this table of contents.
07:35 In larger conversations. I don't know about you, but I've had very, very long conversations with my digital assistants, so I think this is nice and this is quite easy to show you.
07:46 Okay, so here we are. I chose this because it was a very long conversation, but if you focus to the right of my screen, you'll see these different lines, and when I hover over those, you see I get the table of contents from my chat.
08:01 So this is a super, just practical, useful UI update that they've put in, and I really like that one. I think it will really help me if I need to go back to information while I have a nice synopsis of my conversation in that table of contents.
08:16 So, pretty cool. Pretty practical. The next update that we see is this full-screen writing blocks for longer-form work. So this affects Canvas.
08:26 It says writing blocks now cover long-form writing use cases. So maybe before, it would cap at a span. Specific, uhm, document length.
08:36 Well, now it includes essays, reports, blogs, notes, uhm, Okay, longer writing can now open in a focused, full-screen editor. The other thing is that you can save your document to library.
08:48 So, sometimes you're working in Canvas and you can't actually easily find the chat. I mean, you can pin it, but it's hard to actually go back to that specific part of the chat where you are interacting with Canvas.
09:00 Well, now you can, and I'll show you a quick example. Let's go with this prompt, and I want it to create this 20-page AI teacher playbook.
09:12 And in theory, because of this update, we should see increased or better results. We should formatted headings and structuring of the document, the long document.
09:21 We should see capability to do long documents, and then we should also see this library, save to library feature to help us organize all of the documents.
09:32 that we create. a opening up Canvas here, which is our in-chat document editor. And I see a table of contents.
09:49 I see clear titling and subtitling. Perhaps nothing too groundbreaking, but it is clean, which I appreciate, and it is long, which is also cool.
10:01 And you see we can go into that full-screen mode, so it looks exactly as if we were working in a Google Doc.
10:08 I think once this stops loading. Uhm, the other thing we can do is when we go full-screen, we can add to library, and so this is nice, because, let's do that.
10:24 Save to your library. View. Right, and I can also get to library, just here on the left-hand side, it's the third thing down.
10:33 So, library. I can also see this, and it's saved here for me to reference later, and I can just, once it's done, I can open it, and I can continue editing.
10:42 in here, exactly as if I'm, well, I am in Canvas. So, nothing too groundbreaking with this update, but it is nice, just that they're improving it, and that it is clearer and better structured.
10:58 Now, the final update is something that I didn't actually think would happen within ChatGPT, and that is to send an email directly from within a chat.
11:05 So, uhm, I can literally say, send a good morning email to [email protected], and it will send it directly from within ChatGPT’s as long as I have my Gmail connected.
11:32 Now, thankfully, every time, and this is just myself, so I'm not going to scrutinize it here, but every time it will ask us to approve the email, that's nice, they're keeping that human in the loop step, but this is, to me, crazy.
11:46 The fact that, without any technical, uhm, additional instructions, it can just go, connect to my Gmail, and just send it directly.
11:57 Let's just verify that, but, yeah, I think, Yes, that's crazy. Best ChatGPT, how funny. Yeah, so I, I'm really, uhm, impressed, hmm, and shocked by that one.
12:13 I would recommend you to have it do a draft, so it can also, if you ask it to send a message and save it as a draft from within ChatGPT’s, it will do that and then you can go into your draft folder, read over it yourself, do the human part, and then send it from there.
12:29 But, it's interesting to know that that capability now exists within ChatGPT. So, pretty interesting. And this is the June 8th updates.
12:39 There's been a lot other iOS updates and updates with memory. However, that has only been rolled out to Plus and Pro users within the U.S.
12:49 So, yeah. Once that gets fully rolled out to business and enterprise, we'll discuss that together. But, lots of, lots of new things coming our way.
12:58 And so, together, we'll stay on top of this. This is what our Everboarding Hub is for. And I'm excited just to go and continue to stay up to date with you guys.
13:06 Have a wonderful day.
