ChatGPT access. The same applied to calendars and contacts. It is now possible to add a second or even another Google account and work with them within ChatGPT at the same time.
In practice, the novelty is interesting mainly because ChatGPT can work with information across connected accounts. OpenAI He cites planning the day as one example. ChatGPT You can ask it to look at both your personal and work calendars when searching for a free date. Similarly, it can search for emails across connected mailboxes.

ChatGPT can take both sources into account when working with connected accounts without having to constantly switch accounts. It is in scenarios like these that the connection starts to give ChatGPT makes much more sense with Google services.
