ChatGPT Projects now support Deep Research, Voice Mode, and persistent memory

OpenAI has quietly transformed its “Projects” feature in ChatGPT into something closer to an AI-powered workspace. Available to Plus, Pro, Team, Enterprise, and Edu users, Projects now support Deep Research (multi-step, web-assisted queries), Voice Mode for spoken interaction, and persistent memory across chats. Users can organize related conversations, upload files, set task-specific instructions, and stay within context—without restarting from scratch each time. The mobile app also gets a boost: you can now upload files and switch models on the go. Each project acts as a self-contained workspace, useful for writing drafts, building plans, or managing long-term tasks. While Projects still lack collaboration or calendar features, they significantly reduce context-switching and friction for solo professionals.
