ChatGPT is rolling out a Google Drive integration that lets paid-plan users add Drive files to their ChatGPT Library, ask questions about them, and open or edit documents from within chat, according to ChatGPT Consumer Product Lead Adam Fry.

Fry said edits apply to the actual Google Drive file rather than a static copy. Users can also open files in their corresponding Google applications, including Docs and Sheets. The rollout is limited in the supplied account to paid ChatGPT plans.
