## Summary

OpenAI announced **ChatGPT Spaces** at DevDay on September 29, 2026, replacing the **Library** feature with a collaborative workspace. Spaces turn AI-generated files into editable, shared **Pages** where humans and AI agents like *dot* co-edit documents, slides, and spreadsheets in real time. Pages integrate with Slack, email, and calendars to auto-update tasks, reducing repetitive context explanations.

The shift moves AI from a chat tool to an embedded collaborator. Pages support multiple AI models (e.g., ChatGPT, Codex) and users, with granular permissions for viewing/editing. Privacy notes warn that **Memory-enabled AI** may pull personal data into shared Pages. **Collaborative slides/spreadsheets** and full mobile editing are coming later. Spaces launch for **Pro, Business, and Enterprise** users, but rollout may take time—some may still see the old Library. OpenAI frames this as a step toward AI-driven workspaces akin to Google Drive or Notion, with AI handling updates and suggestions dynamically.

## Key points

- ChatGPT Library renamed to **Spaces**, replacing static file storage with collaborative **Pages** for real-time editing by humans and AI agents
- Pages auto-update via Slack/email/calendar integrations and support multiple AI models (e.g., ChatGPT, Codex) per project
- Launching for **Pro, Business, and Enterprise** users only; mobile creation/editing delayed, and rollout may be staggered

## Why it matters

Spaces embeds AI into workflows, turning static files into dynamic team hubs. Teams save time by reducing context-switching and manual updates, while OpenAI shifts focus from chat to collaborative AI participation.
