OpenAI seems to be gearing up to compete against Microsoft Excel and PowerPoint, with a new set of office agents for ChatGPT. With this feature, you will be able to create spreadsheets and presentations without needing Microsoft Office. The project was first reported by The Information, which revealed that these features are currently being tested with a small group of early users.
The goal is to allow ChatGPT users to create and edit Excel-style spreadsheets and PowerPoint-style presentations directly inside the chat interface. The output will be in .xlsx and .pptx, making the files compatible with Microsoft Office, Google Workspace, and other tools. That means no Microsoft 365 subscription will be required to work with these files.
