OpenAI engineer James Sun announced that the ChatGPT desktop app’s in-app browser (IAB) now supports Chrome extensions. Users can install, pin, and use everyday extensions such as 1Password while working inside ChatGPT. Enterprise admins can centrally deploy and manage extensions to meet security requirements. The update strengthens ChatGPT desktop as a workstation and cuts context-switching between a separate browser and the assistant.

  • ✓ChatGPT desktop in-app browser can install, pin, and run Chrome extensions (e.g. 1Password).
