Summary

OpenAI's Finances in ChatGPT lets users link bank, card and investment accounts through Plaid, with read-only access and no ability to move money, says Ethan Bloch, OpenAI's product lead for personal finance. Bloch says millions of accounts have connected in a few months and users are finding duplicate charges and forgotten subscriptions.

Key Points

  • Bloch says users control which accounts they link and can revoke access or disconnect from Plaid at any time.
  • Bloch says users can ask ChatGPT to cancel a subscription, dispute a charge, or request a refund.
  • Bloch says he runs his whole financial life through the feature, with daily transaction automations and a monthly household update.
