ChatGPT's Deep Research Gets GPT-5.2 Upgrade and Site-Specific Search
OpenAI supercharges its research tool with the latest model and lets users target specific websites for digging.
OpenAI just gave ChatGPT's deep research feature a serious upgrade. The tool now runs on GPT-5.2, the company's newest model.
But the real story here is the new functionality. Users can now connect apps directly to ChatGPT. Even better, they can focus their research queries on specific websites instead of casting a wide net across the entire internet.
For anyone who's ever wanted ChatGPT to dig deep into particular sources rather than surfacing random results, this is a game-changer. Think targeted academic research or competitive analysis without the noise.
The update also brings a full-screen report view, making it easier to read and navigate those lengthy research outputs. OpenAI announced the changes on X.
No word yet on whether these features will remain exclusive to certain subscription tiers.
