ChatGPT's Computer Use feature can now operate Spotify, Chrome, and Google Calendar directly from the desktop app, executing multi-step tasks across live applications without user hand-holding.
The walkthrough demonstrates a specific sequence: trigger music playback in Spotify via the Computer tool, then chain Chrome and Google Calendar to draft a time-off request and create an out-of-office event. Appshots handle screen context sharing, and the user reviews all drafts before anything is submitted or saved. The control checkpoint matters: this is not autonomous execution.
The technical detail worth reading for is how Appshots grant and scope application access, and how context is passed between discrete desktop environments mid-task. OpenAI published a companion lesson at learn.chatgpt.com for hands-on replication.
