据科技网站9to5mac报道，OpenAI已通知仍在使用旧版ChatGPT Classic应用的用户，该应用将很快停用。同时，OpenAI也正在准备将聊天(Chat)和工作(Work)合并为一个统一的界面。
几个月前，OpenAI发布了一款全新的ChatGPT桌面应用，将ChatGPT聊天、Work和Codex整合到同一个界面中。因此，原来的常规ChatGPT应用被更名为ChatGPT Classic。这一调整引发了不少争议，主要有两个原因：首先，OpenAI用基于Electron框架开发的版本取代了原生macOS应用；其次，新版界面设计非常令人困惑，用户不仅难以找到常规的ChatGPT对话，甚至连ChatGPT、Work和Codex之间的区别都难以分辨。
OpenAI迅速回应了部分投诉，在窗口顶部恢复了醒目的Chat和Work切换按钮，让用户可以直接访问对话，并增加了用于在ChatGPT和Codex之间切换的侧边栏菜单。此后，该公司还推出了其他改动，使应用更易于使用。
但是，ChatGPT Classic应用基本未再做改动。随着OpenAI发布的新模型与新应用专属功能（例如可选择不同推理强度）结合得更加紧密，它变得越来越不可靠。尽管此前种种迹象已经表明，这款应用即将走向停用，但如今官方终于给出了具体日期。根据用户打开ChatGPT Classic时看到的新提示信息，该应用将于2027年1月30日正式停止提供服务。
“这款应用将于2027年1月30日正式停止服务。请使用新版ChatGPT应用，体验最新功能。你的全部聊天记录都会迁移过去，你可以继续之前未完成的对话。”OpenAI称。
OpenAI正在告知用户，未来几周内将开始测试整合Chat和Work功能的统一体验。几个月前，OpenAI总裁格雷格·布罗克曼(Greg Brockman)曾承认，新版ChatGPT界面“确实有点混乱”。他当时表示，公司希望在年底前取消Work标签页，将其功能整合到常规ChatGPT体验中。
现在，OpenAI在发给用户的一封电子邮件中解释称，这项测试将首先面向一小部分用户开放。他们将能够在同一个界面中使用ChatGPT的对话功能，以及Work更为强大的高级功能。

According to 9to5mac on the technology website, Open AI has notified users who are still using the old ChatGPT Classic application, which will soon be discontinued. Open AI is also preparing to merge Chat and Work into a single interface.
A few months ago, OpenAIpublish had a brand-new ChatGPT desktop application that integrated ChatGPT chats, Work and Codex into the same interface. As a result, the original regular ChatGPT application was renamed ChatGPT Classic. This adjustment was controversial for two main reasons: first, Open AI replaced the original MacOS application with a version based on the Electron framework; second, the design of the new interface was confusing, and it was difficult for users not only to find regular ChatGPT conversations, but even to distinguish between ChatGPT, World and Codex.
Open AI responded quickly to some of the complaints, restoring the visible Chat and Work switch buttons at the top of the window, allowing users direct access to the dialogue and adding the sidebar menu for switching between ChatGPT and Codex. Since then, the company has introduced other changes to make applications more user-friendly.
However, the ChatGPT Classic application was largely unchanged. As the new model of OpenAIpublish is more closely integrated with the exclusive function of the new application (e.g. the choice of different levels of reasoning), it becomes less reliable. Despite previous indications that the application was about to be discontinued, the official date had finally been given. The application will officially cease service on 30 January 2027, according to the new alert information that the user saw when opening ChatGPT Classic.
“This application will be officially discontinued on 30 January 2027. Use the new ChatGPT application to experience the latest functionality. All your chat records will be migrated, and you can continue the conversation that was not finished." Open AI says.
Open AI is informing users that the unified experience of integrating Chat and Work functions will be tested in the coming weeks. A few months ago, Greg Brockman, President of Open AI, acknowledged that the new version of the ChatGPT interface “does seem a little confused”. At that time, he stated that the company wished to remove the Work tab by the end of the year and integrate its functionality into the regular ChatGPT experience.
Now, in an e-mail sent to the users, Open AI explained that the test would first be open to a small number of users. They will be able to use the ChatGPT dialogue function in the same interface, as well as the more powerful high-level function of Work.
