ChatGPT Intelligent UI: Interactive Charts and Tools
ChatGPT can now answer some questions with more than text. Its new Intelligent UI feature can combine written explanations with visuals and interactive elements, such as diagrams, side-by-side comparisons, calculators, bill splitters, and games.
OpenAI says ChatGPT can choose the format automatically based on the question. If an interactive element would not help, it can still provide a standard text response. The update is powered by GPT-6 and is available in the Chat tab as the rollout reaches supported plans.
What is ChatGPT Intelligent UI?
Intelligent UI is a feature that lets ChatGPT present certain answers as interactive experiences inside the conversation. Instead of describing every detail in a long paragraph, ChatGPT may show a diagram, comparison, chart, or tool that users can interact with.
For example, a question about comparing two options could produce a side-by-side view. A request involving costs might lead to a calculator or bill-splitting tool. A visual explanation could include a diagram that helps users explore different parts of a topic.
According to the official ChatGPT release notes, the system chooses whether to use visuals and interactive elements or keep the answer in text, depending on what suits the question.
What can ChatGPT create in a conversation?
OpenAI’s examples include side-by-side comparisons, diagrams, calculators, bill splitters, and games. These tools appear directly in the chat, so users can work with them without opening a separate website or app.
Interactive answers may be useful when a person needs to adjust values, compare choices, or understand how parts of something fit together. A calculator, for instance, can make it easier to test different numbers. A diagram can make a complicated explanation easier to explore.
ChatGPT will not necessarily add a visual to every answer. The feature is intended to appear when an interactive format can help. For a straightforward question, a simple text reply may remain the clearest option.
How to try ChatGPT’s interactive answers
Open ChatGPT and ask a question that would benefit from a visual or interactive tool. You can request a comparison, a calculator, or a diagram directly in your prompt. If the feature is available on your account, ChatGPT may generate an interactive response in the conversation.
You do not need to create or configure a separate tool first. The system determines whether to use an interactive format and generates it as part of the answer. Availability can vary by plan, model, and rollout status.

Which ChatGPT plans support Intelligent UI?
OpenAI’s release notes say the rollout began globally in the Chat tab for Plus, Pro, Business, and Enterprise users, then expanded to Free and Go. Enterprise availability may depend on workspace administrator settings.
The release notes also distinguish the models used across plans: Plus, Pro, Business, and Enterprise use GPT-6 Sol, while Free and Go use GPT-6 Luna. The Pro reasoning option uses GPT-6 Astra and does not support Intelligent UI.
Because access can depend on account settings and rollout progress, users may not see the feature at the same time. Updating the ChatGPT app and checking the model selected in the Chat tab may help if the feature has not appeared yet.
GPT-6 can begin answering while it works
OpenAI says GPT-6 can start answering while it continues to think or use tools, then add more findings to the response without requiring another prompt. This can let users begin reading before the full answer is ready.
Combined with Intelligent UI, this points to a more flexible chat experience: some replies may begin as text and then develop with additional findings or interactive content as ChatGPT completes the task.
What Intelligent UI does not mean
Intelligent UI does not turn every ChatGPT response into a chart or app. The feature selects a format automatically, and some questions are best answered with text alone. Users should also review important information in generated tools and verify figures or advice when accuracy matters.
The feature is described for the Chat tab. OpenAI says the models powering ChatGPT Work and Codex are not changing as part of this release.
Why interactive answers matter
Interactive answers could make ChatGPT more useful for tasks that involve learning, comparing, planning, or working with numbers. A diagram can make an explanation easier to follow, while a calculator or game can turn a one-way answer into something users can explore.
Intelligent UI is an optional format chosen by ChatGPT when it fits the question. Its value will depend on how reliably it creates useful experiences and whether users find them clearer than ordinary text.
Final thoughts
ChatGPT’s Intelligent UI brings diagrams, comparisons, calculators, bill splitters, and games into the conversation. The feature is powered by GPT-6 and is rolling out across ChatGPT plans in the Chat tab.
For users, the main change is simple: ask a question as usual, and ChatGPT may respond with an interactive tool when that format can make the answer easier to understand or use.
