If you’ve ever written an email draft in ChatGPT only to copy it into Gmail or Outlook to hit send, you can now skip that extra step. OpenAI has introduced a feature that enables you to dispatch emails straight from writing blocks on the web version of ChatGPT, keeping the entire workflow inside a single conversation.
ChatGPT writing blocks now support sending emails
Writing blocks, a formatting tool launched late last year, turn email drafts into a distinct, clean block that resembles a real email editor rather than a plain chat reply. You can highlight any line to request revisions, accept or reject suggestions individually, and edit the text directly within the block without needing to copy it elsewhere. The newest update pushes this further by adding a send button, so you never have to leave the chat to deliver your message.

Is it safe to send emails through ChatGPT?
Before you start relying on this capability, note a recent lawsuit filed in California alleging that OpenAI shared user prompts, chat queries, and identifying data with Google and Meta tracking tools without proper consent, potentially violating state privacy law and federal wiretap statutes. You may want to avoid drafting highly sensitive content until the matter is resolved.
What else is ChatGPT working on?
OpenAI continues to roll out new features. The assistant is getting better at remembering details about you by learning from your chat history, making conversations feel more personalized over time. On the productivity front, ChatGPT for Excel and Google Sheets has left beta and is now globally available, allowing users to create workbooks, clean data, and generate formulas using plain language without being spreadsheet experts.
