ChatGPT Joins the 'Wrapped' Trend with AI-Generated 'Year in Review'

Joining the flood of apps offering annual recaps, <keyword>ChatGPT</keyword> is rolling out a new 'Year in Review' feature for its users. The summary provides personalized stats—like how many messages you sent in 2025—and culminates in a unique, <keyword>AI</keyword>-generated pixel art image that visualizes your most frequent conversation topics.

From Prompts to Personalized Pixels

The centerpiece of the feature is the custom pixel art. The <keyword>AI</keyword> analyzes the themes prevalent in a user's chats throughout the year and synthesizes them into a single, shareable image.

For example, a user who frequently asked about retro game consoles, cooking, and fish tank setups received an image featuring a game cartridge, an Instant Pot, and an aquarium, according to a report from The Verge. This turns a user's query history into a visual memento. The review also includes other summaries, such as a rundown of the most common themes in your chats.

The Engagement Playbook

This move clearly follows the wildly successful personalization playbook written by services like Spotify Wrapped. By transforming raw interaction data into an engaging, personalized experience, OpenAI is working to deepen its relationship with users. It's a strategic effort to position <keyword>ChatGPT</keyword> not just as a transactional tool, but as a persistent companion that's part of your digital life.
