The benefits of doing this, OpenAI argues, are numerous. Users can use the plugin to sort, analyze, or edit their messages directly from ChatGPT. The plugin also works with Codex and ChatGPT Work, so users can use it professionally, not just personally.

You can also ask ChatGPT to delete messages for you, draft and send messages on your behalf, or search for information buried deep in your message history.
