ChatGPT Workspace Tour

The parts of the interface that matter, described so they stay true as the design evolves.

Interface details move around over time, so focus on the functions rather than exact positions on screen.

  • Starting a conversation

    A conversation is a working session. Everything you say in it becomes context for what follows.

  • Entering prompts

    The message box is where your instruction goes. Longer, structured instructions are fine here.

  • Attaching files

    Where available, you can attach documents so the assistant works from your material.

  • Starting new chats

    Start a new chat when the topic changes, so old context does not distort the answer.

  • Managing conversations

    Rename and organise chats you intend to reuse — they become your prompt library.

  • Settings and tools

    Settings control data and personalisation options. Available tools vary by plan and change over time.

Key takeaway

Manage your conversations and you manage the quality of your context.
