ChatGPT Gets Spotify Wrapped-Style Year-End Review

Want some perspective on your ChatGPT use in 2025? OpenAI has a little something for you.

‘Tis the season for year-end recaps from the online services you frequent. The latest entry: Your Year with ChatGPT, a look back at your interactions with the AI chatbot, in the spirit of Spotify Wrapped.

Available now in the US, UK, Canada, Australia and New Zealand for all users across the web and mobile devices, it looks at your queries to pull together the biggest themes and curiosities in a pastel-colored package. Your Year with ChatGPT also gives awards with certain attributes and ranks them in various archetypes against other ChatGPT users.

For example, I got an inventor award and recognition as a «navigator» archetype, which accounts for 22.9% of users. That makes sense, given how much time I spent investigating how ChatGPT functions, both as a thing itself and in comparison with other chatbots like Claude and Gemini. I do some serious stress-testing of these AI tools.

The year-end review also generated an AI image of all my interests.

To get a Your Year with ChatGPT, you have to have «reference saved memories» and «reference chat history» turned on. You also needed to use ChatGPT a minimum number of times to trigger the feature. Your Year with ChatGPT isn’t available for Team, Enterprise or Education accounts.

ChatGPT maker OpenAI is following in the well-trod footsteps of year-end reviews from other tech companies. Spotify Wrapped is the buzziest, with users eager to sharing their results on social media. It’s prompted some creators to film their own parody wrapped videos showcasing their dismal dating lives. YouTube too latched onto the trend with Recap, showcasing the creators that users watched most throughout the year and where they landed against all viewers. Other end-of-year rewinds include Google Search, Google Photos, Apple Music, PlayStation and Steam.

Your Year with ChatGPT caps a successful, if rocky, year for OpenAI. The company released GPT-5 — which many users weren’t crazy about — and its open weights local model named GPT-OSS. OpenAI also inked major infrastructure deals with Oracle, Nvidia and AMD, shooting its valuation to $830 billion, and it moved from being a nonprofit-esque public benefit company to a privately held company, laying the groundwork for a potential initial public offering.

At the same time, it’s been feeling the heat from Google’s AI efforts, including the launch of Gemini 3. Investors are also becoming wary of OpenAI’s cash burn amid concerns of a larger AI bubble.

(Disclosure: Ziff Davis, CNET’s parent company, in April filed a lawsuit against OpenAI, alleging it infringed Ziff Davis copyrights in training and operating its AI systems.)

Samsung’s Galaxy Watch Ultra 2 Might Come in 5G and 4G Cellular Models

If the rumor proves true, the 5G Galaxy Watch Ultra would rival the 5G-enabled $799 Apple Watch Ultra 3 that debuted last fall.

Samsung’s next high-end Galaxy Watch could support faster 5G speeds, but if this leak is true, it will depend on where you live. The rumored Samsung Galaxy Watch Ultra 2 might come in 5G and 4G cellular models, with availability for each smartwatch depending on the country.

According to the Dutch website Galaxy Club (and spotted by SamMobile), Samsung’s servers may have revealed a series of model numbers that point to 5G, 4G and Wi-Fi-enabled editions of the next Galaxy Watch Ultra, which would succeed the original model that debuted in 2024.

A representative for Samsung did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

The Galaxy Club website speculates that the 5G edition would be sold in the US and Korean markets, while the 4G edition would sell in the rest of the world. In the US, a 5G version of the Galaxy Watch Ultra would rival the 5G-enabled $799 Apple Watch Ultra 3, which debuted last fall. The 4G edition would have broader compatibility worldwide, since the earlier network is far more established.

It will likely be a few months until we hear anything official about the Galaxy Watch Ultra 2. Samsung typically unveils its new watches in the summer alongside its Galaxy Z Fold and Z Flip foldable phones. Last year, Samsung unveiled the Galaxy Watch 8 and the Galaxy Watch 8 Classic, but otherwise left the prior 2024 Ultra in the lineup for those looking for a larger 47mm smartwatch.
