Focus on Local? Let's call this the "Near Me ChatGPT Update" :) -> It's a big update by ChatGPT IMO that rolled out on March 26th that nobody is talking about... You can now share your device location so ChatGPT can provide more relevant information like local recommendations, news, and weather. It's a local-focused update that's important for OpenAI since ChatGPT hasn't really been very good at those types of queries. And Google dominates for them. The big question becomes, do users even know this is possible and will people share their location? If not, ChatGPT will continue to underperform for those queries... help.openai.com/en/articles/โ€ฆ
