OpenAI retiring custom GPTs Dec 11; chats won't transfer to Projects

OpenAI is retiring custom GPTs on December 11th, and users are advised to migrate their configurations to Projects before this date. A key limitation is that existing chat histories with custom GPTs will not transfer to the new Projects, requiring users to start fresh conversations. Additionally, migrating a custom GPT to a plugin or project will not carry over custom actions, selected models, or unpublished edits, necessitating manual rebuilding of these features. AI

IMPACT Users will need to reconfigure their GPTs and start new conversations in Projects, impacting workflow continuity for those heavily reliant on custom GPT features.
