Uber is expanding access to OpenAI’s ChatGPT Work agent for more than 30,000 employees, following a smaller pilot and recent staff layoffs. The company positions the tool as an assistant for workplace tasks, such as drafting meeting briefs and helping with data analysis.
Across outlets, the rollout is described as part of Uber’s broader push to use AI in day-to-day work while managing costs. The Next Web adds that the agent is connected to tools including Gmail, Drive and Slack, and that OpenAI says it runs on GPT-6.1 Sol by default. TechCrunch and Business Insider focus more on the scale of deployment and the purpose of the assistant, with less detail on integrations and underlying model specifics.
The coverage broadly agrees on the number of employees involved and that the rollout follows an earlier trial.
