Most people think they know ChatGPT because they type prompts into a box and read answers. 

The reality is that ChatGPT has crossed a threshold where it behaves more like an assistant platform than a single tool, especially when paired with Apple devices, Projects, and the new ChatGPT-5 model. 

Here's a Cool Tip: Discover the impactful and most popular ChatGPT Cool Tips in 2025.

If you have not revisited how you use ChatGPT in the past few months, you are almost certainly leaving productivity on the table.
