ChatGPT is joining the likes of YouTube, Apple Music, Google Photos, and Spotify by rolling out a personalized year-end summary that looks back at how users spent their time with the chatbot in 2025. The new feature, called “Your Year with ChatGPT,” lets users revisit the chats and ideas that shaped their year.

OpenAI announced the feature in a recent post on X, revealing that it’s rolling out to users in the US, UK, Canada, New Zealand, and Australia “who have reference saved memory and reference chat history turned on.” Once it’s live, users in these regions will see a “Your Year with ChatGPT” banner in the chat interface, and tapping on it will open the summary.

Alternatively, users can tap the + button and use the prompt “show me my year with ChatGPT” to access the year-end summary. The recap will include an overview of themes discussed over the year, alongside chat stats like busiest chat day, total conversations, number of messages sent, etc.

Beyond stats and chat history

ChatGPT’s year-end summary will also highlight a chat style based on the user’s writing or speaking habits and offer an “archetype” based on how they used the chatbot. Furthermore, it will include an AI-generated poem, a personalized pixel-style artwork inspired by user activity, an award tied to usage patterns, and predictions hinting at how users might use ChatGPT in 2026.

The feature is available across all ChatGPT tiers, including the free version. While year-end summaries are largely playful, ChatGPT’s implementation offers users a snapshot of how they are increasingly weaving the AI into their daily routines. From quick questions to brainstorming sessions to longer work-focused conversations, the summary gives them an easy way to reflect on the role the chatbot played in their everyday lives and workflows over the course of the year.

AI slop, the colloquial term for low-effort AI-generated content, has emerged as a huge problem across different industries. Music labels are fighting streaming services to put an AI label on such tra/cks. Publishing houses are wary of AI-written drafts. Research journals are buried under a deluge of AI-generated papers. The software industry is reeling under the pressure of vibe-coded apps brimming with security flaws. Even Apple is struggling against a tide of bug reports created using AI. Of course, the disdain against AI is pretty obvious, but there's now a new dimension to it.

It appears that the "AI agents going rogue" tale has more to it than what AI giants have revealed publicly so far. Merely days after OpenAI announced that its AI agents went rogue and hacked Hugging Face, Anthropic dropped a similar bombshell. Soon, it was discovered that not just one, but multiple services were compromised. Well, it seems there are even more layers to it.

Reuters reports that OpenAI has found more incidents of AI agents escaping their software containment environment during research. Citing sources with knowledge of the incident, the outlet notes that the AI agents didn't go beyond OpenAI's software environment and affect any external service.
