Bug fix
This release fixes an issue where the absence of the Anthropic version could lead to errors with Claude models.
September 12, 2023 - GPT for Sheets
Improvement
We've modified GPT formula cache behavior to improve consistency and reduce unnecessary recalculations:
When caching is enabled in your spreadsheet, formula refresh is now restricted to error cases.
Caching is now formula-centric, and ignores sidebar settings. If the formula is unchanged, results are consistently retrieved from the cache.
When using a value from the cache, the formula result might therefore not reflect your latest sidebar settings.
September 6, 2023 - GPT for Docs
Improvement
This release includes the following improvements:
Model settings are now saved within the add-on, ensuring they are available when you reopen your document or use the add-on in a different document.
We have renamed and improved the ability to attach custom instructions to prompts. Previously called Set behavior and configured per prompt, this feature is now named Custom instructions and can be found in the Model settings section. With this update, custom instructions are set at the model level and are now saved within the add-on along all other model settings.
The Model list now shows only the models that are available to your currently set API keys.
When you select a Claude model, the default value for Max response tokens is now set to 10000. This change is designed to maximize the benefits of Anthropic models' larger token capacity when transitioning from a model with a smaller capacity.
text-ada-001, text-babbage-001 and text-curie-001 models, which will soon be retired by OpenAI, are demoted in GPT for Docs.

GPT_CONVERT: was identical to GPT_FORMAT
GPT_CODE: was removed due to very low usage
GPT_MAP and GPT_CONVERT remain usable by manually typing the functions.
August 21, 2023 - GPT for Sheets
Bug fix
This release restores compatibility for formulas containing the deprecated max_tokens parameter. These old formulas now execute successfully, however any value specified for max_tokens will be ignored.
To configure this parameter, it is now recommended to use the sidebar setting Max response size.
August 18, 2023 - GPT for Sheets
Bug fix
GPT_TAG no longer returns an error if the tag list is not specified through the optional tags parameter. If the parameter is left blank, relevant tags are automatically suggested.

June 29, 2023 - GPT in Excel
Improvement
This update includes new formula examples on GPT in Excel home page and a refreshed design.
Bug fix
GPT_CLASSIFY doesn't hallucinate categories anymore and only returns results from the provided list of categories. If no category matches your input text, the function returns #N/A.
June 28, 2023 - GPT in Excel
Improvement
The execution rate limit has been reduced from 10 per second to 3 per second. This prevents reaching OpenAI rate limits and avoids errors.
June 27, 2023 - GPT in Excel
Announcement
The following functions were added to the GPT in Excel function family:
GPT_CLASSIFY classifies a given text into a single category.
GPT_CONVERT converts from one format to another. For instance json to table, or xml to json.
GPT_EXTRACT extracts data (like email addresses or company names) from a text.
GPT_FILL magically fills or cleans a range from a few examples.
GPT_FORMAT formats dates, currencies, addresses, names, etc. Fixes capitalization. And so much more.
GPT_SUMMARIZE summarizes text according to a given format (three sentences by default).
GPT_TABLE is like GPT, but outputs the results in a table. Very practical when the output is a table.
GPT_TAG applies user-defined tags to text or automatically suggests relevant tags if none are specified.
GPT_TRANSLATE translates text from one language into another. Works better if you specify the source language.
June 21, 2023 - GPT for Docs
Improvement
Dutch and Italian are now available as prompt languages.
June 21, 2023 - GPT for Work
Improvements

June 12, 2023 - GPT in Excel
Announcement
We are excited to announce that our GPT in Excel add-in is transitioning to a paid model, effective immediately. You don't need to create and set up your own OpenAI API key anymore. Instead, buy credit packs that last 90 days. Each execution of GPT functions then costs credits.
More functions are also coming soon, stay tuned!
June 12, 2023 - GPT for Sheets and Docs
Improvement
gpt-3.5-turbo is now the default model in GPT for Sheets and Docs.

May 12, 2023 - GPT for Sheets
Improvement
GPT_MAP can only handle a maximum of 1300 rows due to Google's limitations. To aid in this, we've included a clear error message. If you encounter this message, you can resolve the issue by executing GPT_MAP in smaller batches to stay within the limit.
May 12, 2023 - GPT for Docs
Announcement
We've added the gpt-4-0314 model to our GPT for Docs extension!
May 10, 2023 - GPT for Sheets
Improvements
In this new version of GPT for Sheets:

GPT_SPLIT: Splits text semantically, e.g. by section, paragraph, customer. This function outputs all splits vertically in a column.
GPT_HSPLIT: Splits text semantically, e.g. by section, paragraph, customer. This function outputs all splits horizontally in a row.
Improvements
You can now choose a model directly from the Selected Model Status list, enabling you to view the current response times of the models to guide your choice.
To ensure optimal performance, we've updated the default model for new users to text-davinci-003, following observed latency issues with the gpt-3.5-turbo model.
We've released a new version of the following functions:
GPT_TRANSLATE: we've introduced an [instructions] parameter for you to provide specific guidelines for your translations.
GPT_TAG and GPT_CLASSIFY: We also added an [example] parameter for you to provide a table of examples with two columns: the first column should contain the inputs and the second column should contain the outputs.
April 12, 2023 - GPT for Docs
Improvements
With this release, you can now:
Mark a prompt as favorite to save it permanently, ensuring it remains accessible even after you close the document or the add-on.
Select the language in which you write your prompts and custom instructions to optimize the model's response.

March 13, 2023 - GPT for Sheets
Announcement
We've introduced a new template showcasing how to use GPT functions in Google Sheets. This includes basic copywriting, data categorization, email address extraction, and more within your Google spreadsheet. Open the template and click Use template to duplicate it and test the GPT functions.
March 11, 2023 - Lots of improvements
GPT_TABLE and GPT_EXTRACT now work better with table headers
GPT_CLASSIFY can now use the text-embedding-ada-002 model for classification, which will prevent GPT from inventing unwanted categories. To use it, simply specify the model in the function parameter
GPT_TAG has a new top_k parameter which allows you to control the maximum number of tags to be returned
Quotation marks are better handled so that they are not trimmed when they're wanted
Errors of authorization linked to multiple account should be better handled
March 6, 2023 - Small improvements
We've made improvements to GPT_FILL, GPT_TABLE and GPT_EXTRACT
March 2, 2023 - ChatGPT turbo, baby
OpenAI released the new chatgpt gpt-3.5-turbo model last night, and it is now the default model in in all functions of GPT for Sheets and Docs. Enjoy 10x cheaper costs, faster and better quality responses.
We turbo released this, so if it breaks anything, (1) we're sorry and (2) please let us know here
Other improvements
Specifying tags in GPT_TAG is now optional: GPT_TAG will come up with tags on its own
GPT_TAG and GPT_CLASSIFY output in lowercase if categories are lowercase
We now automatically detect fine-tuned model most frequent separators
A few other details that make the overall experience better
February 24, 2023 - Map values with GPT_MAP
New functions
GPT_MAP which enables you to map the values of two columns to find the best matches. You can use it to map different spellings or even categories that are semantically related. This function uses the text-ada-002-embeddings model which is extremely fast and very cheap
GPT_TREE which is more of an experimental function to generate trees of content in your spreadsheet.
We've also added a GTP function for those who find the letter T faster than the letter P! 😊
Fine-tuned models
You can now use your fine-tuned models in GPT for Sheets! Simply specify your model in the model parameter of your GPT function.
We will automatically recognize or add the stop sequence of your prompt.
Improvements
Datetimes are now better handled. (the devil really is in the details)
We now better handle incorrect values in all parameters
GPT_CONVERT now works better
The default max_tokens parameter has been increased to 500 in order to avoid to many cut responses
February 20, 2023 - Real numbers and dates
The devil is in the details!
ChatGPT outputs pure text by default. When this text contains numbers or dates, we want them as numbers or date objects in our spreadsheets in order to be able to operate on them.
GPT for Sheets now correctly recognises numbers and dates before writing them to your spreadsheet. This makes it much more usable to work with tables of data.
February 14, 2023 - Improved parsing
We have improved parsing of input in the prompts sent to OpenAI which will result in better quality output.
We have also improved our preset prompts in GPT for Docs for better output quality.
February 8, 2023 - Added examples
We've added an examples template spreadsheet directly accessible from the add-on menu.
Replacing formulas now works on all GPT functions.
February 6, 2023 - Improved error messages
We've made error messages easier to understand which should help you understand what to do when you input a parameter incorrectly, hit a rate limit, expire your free trial or when OpenAI servers are unavailable.
January 31, 2023 - New preset functions!
GPT for Sheets
Woohoo! We just released a bunch of new functions that will make it much easier to make some frequent operations without writing any prompt:
GPT_TAG to apply tags. Simple and easy
GPT_CODE to generate code in your spreadsheet. Yes some people want to do this!
GPT_EDIT to edit text. By default it fixes spelling and grammar
GPT_EXTRACT to extract things like email addresses or companies from a paragraph. Works remarkably well
GPT_CONVERT to convert cells and ranges from one format to another: html, json, json-ld, nl-json, tables, csv, markdown. Incredibly powerful
GPT_SUMMARIZE to quickly summarize some text
GPT_TRANSLATE to quickly translate some text
GPT_CLASSIFY to classify into a single category (different from GPT_TAG where multiple tags can apply)
and finally GPT_CREATE_PROMPT which will help you create a prompt from many different cells and ranges in your spreadsheet by just listing them one by one as arguments
Fix a bug when the value parameter of GPT_LIST was empty
Improvements to prompt and response parsing that make our functions more robust
Changed the default cache setting to disabled for new users, and automatically enable it after 100 executions
January 26, 2023
GPT for Sheets
GPT_LIST now supports a range as a prompt. This makes it much easier to give write a good, specific, and detailed prompt.
Replace formula with values now works on GPT_FILL
We now check if you're the owner of the spreadsheet before you can set an API key
We have switched the order of parameters in all functions: max_tokens now comes before model, since:
tweaking the max_tokens parameter is actually useful and needs to be done frequently for longer-form content
there is very little reason to use another model than the default which is text-davinci-003.
GPT for Docs
OpenAI responses are correctly split in paragraphs when relevant
New tooltips have been added to the interface
January 24, 2023
GPT for Sheets
The GPT function can now take range as prompt. This is a huge improvement, and makes it much easier to give write a good, specific, and detailed prompt.
January 20, 2023
GPT for Sheets
We've released a new magical function: GPT_FILL ! This one is really incredible to see in action. All you need to do is feed it some example rows and it will fill a range intelligently. Super useful for cleaning lists, where the right prompt can be difficult to put together.
First release of GPT for Docs!
You can now use the add-on from Google Docs, which is much more suitable for long-form content
You can type your prompt directly in the document or in the prompt box
January 18, 2023
GPT for Sheets
This update brings two cost management features:
Replacing formulas with values, from the Extensions menu: once you're satisfied with the answers of GPT, you should replace the formulas with values so that they never get recalculated.
Cache management: we now cache answers of the same prompt by default for a duration of roughly 6 hours. This means that every answer you get will be reused if you ask the same question again or the formula gets recalculated will help lower your OpenAI costs. You can of course disable the cache if you prefer to explore variations rapidly and do not want to reuse answers. The cache is per spreadsheet.
January 12, 2023
GPT for Sheets
We've released a new function: GPT_LIST !
It makes it as simple as pie to get one item per cell when you want multiple items at once, like “5 taglines for an ice-cream shop”.
January 7, 2023
GPT for Sheets first release!
It all started with a simple GPT function. The little function that could.
Bug fix
The Replace GPT formulas with results feature now disregards cells containing GPT formulas that are in error, loading, or paused states. This ensures that only valid formulas are processed.
