According to reports, OpenAI is actively promoting a strategic transformation of its flagship product, ChatGPT, aiming to upgrade it from a large language model (LLM) interaction tool into an AI platform with social features.
The core information indicates that OpenAI is testing an built-in **"Private Message"** feature, along with developing a username and profile system to support direct communication between users. The implementation of this feature will completely change the user interaction model of ChatGPT.
This feature was discovered in the code of the ChatGPT Android beta application by an AI researcher, and its internal development codename is "Calpico."
In addition, future versions of ChatGPT are expected to include more rich social notification features, such as group member change reminders and message push notifications, further enhancing its stickiness as a social platform.
If this feature is officially launched, ChatGPT will not only be the center for users to interact with AI, but also become a new social networking space centered around AI.
