What is ChatGPT
ChatGPT for Chrome is an extension that brings the full ChatGPT assistant into the browser, letting it understand context across tabs and automate tasks while the user stays in control.
It drives the browser to test websites, create and edit documents, spreadsheets, and slides, and research across authenticated sites. ChatGPT always asks before sensitive actions such as accessing new sites, browsing history, or uploading files, and picks the right tool for each task.

Control your browser with ChatGPT. OVERVIEW
The ChatGPT in Chrome extension gives you the full power of ChatGPT directly inside your browser, next to where you work via side chat, and enables the desktop app to control your browser.
ChatGPT understands context across all your tabs, can drive the browser to automate tasks, and has the full capabilities of the Codex app including your installed plugins, existing threads, and the file system.
For any task, ChatGPT will intelligently pick the right tool for the job. If it needs the browser, ChatGPT will work in the background without ever taking over your active browsing session, so you always stay in control.
ChatGPT always asks before sensitive actions like accessing new sites, referencing your browser history, and downloading/uploading files.
